Apparently you haven't been paying attention to LA news. It's on the rise.

I don't think it's worse & I don't think it is better [in other words, unacceptable]. Unfortunately the state is broke & funding for summer jobs was cut. Best antidote for gangs is going to work.

you shouldnt let gangs scare you away from moving here.

if you stay out of the bad areas, you will be fine.

I'm pushing 40 and have never personally seen any gang violence here. I generally don't hang in the worst parts of town where this usually occurs, gang member to gang member.
