Although they are an East Side Crips gang, the East Coast Crips are affiliated with the Neighbor Hood Crips card making them allies of most gangs under the Deuce(2x), Rollin 0’s and Blocc Crips card. With the demographics in East Los Angeles changing from predominately African-American to Hispanic, this gang has grown to incorporate factions outside of the South Los Angeles region over the years such as the 190 East Coast Blocc Crips out of Carson, California and the 1200 East Coast Blocc Crips in the unincorporated community of Riverside, California. They are one of the largest African-American street gangs and Crip sets in Los Angeles. This gang derived from Raymond Lee Washington's East Side Crips and was formed in the late 1960s. Despite the name's suggestion, the East Coast Crips retain no connections to the east coast of the United States, but rather it is in reference to being east of the 110 Harbor Freeway which acts as a divider between East Los Angeles and West Los Angeles. The East Side (E/S) East Coast Crips are a large and infamous African-American umbrella gang consisting of many different neighborhoods on the east side of South Los Angeles, California.
