the image most people have of gangs is a poor, very-densely populated, neighborhood. But the MS-13, an extremely vicious gang, has made the areas surrounding DC (Montco, NOVA) and Nassau/Suffolk counties a stronghold for their activities. Why do you think the gangsters have chosen those areas? Is it possible the kingpins can afford to live there from protection rackets and what not?

Mara Salvatrucha operates in those places because Salvadorans are there, but i think its also inaccurate to say they operate in wealthy areas. Long island and the dc metro have large pockets of poor areas within the rich ones.

even Hempstead has a MHI higher than the median.
