It's almost ok, but the schools are bad.

Used to be okay, but has changed dramatically over the years. Crime, schools are bad. If you are working in Carson there are places to live without a horrible commute, but not a good idea to live in the city of Carson.

Where are all these gangs? My cousin's friend lives in Carson and has never encountered a gang member. She spent 375k for a nice townhome in the area.

LA Galaxy fans! (OK, shameless jab)

Are Crips and/or Samoan gangs still prevalent around there, or is that old news?

So this is your cousin's friend, not your friend which means you dont know her well enough to know if she's really ever encountered a gang member or not. CARSON is NOT GOOD. Just like its next door neighbors Compton and Gardena, I would NOT want to live there.

Here is a good representation of Carson:

It's improved, it varies from neighborhood to neighborhood. Check out any neighborhood after dark.

I had a friend who grew up there in the 90s. It was a little rougher, he called it See Arson
