The area has a well known seedy reputation attaining to the once rampant prostitution and drug trade, which until recently, had been controlled by a local gang called the Galloway Boys. After being dismantled by police, the area has seen the emergence of smaller clicks associating themselves with the Crips gang. This area is one of 13 considered "priority areas" in the city in dire need of social programs for local youth. Also see the Pentagon.
