Apartment Crip

A loosely organized set whose entire operation, influence, and reputation begins and ends at the apartment complex they call home. For some reason these types of sets always want to be Crips. They are typically self declared Crips but can be type of any set whose influence, activity, and public persona rarely extends beyond the gates of their apartment complex. These are individuals or groups who rep the set hard online typically posting selfies in their living room or hallway while never actually stepping foot in the streets.

Geographically loyal: Won’t leave the complex unless it’s for a court date or a corner store run and even then, only if it’s walking distance.
• Not street verified: Other gangs often don’t recognize Apartment Crips as legitimate sets, viewing them more as hobbyists or hallway hall monitors with blue flags.
• High talk, low travel: Known for deep Instagram captions and shallow territorial range.
“Funny, I ain’t never heard of that gang before… must be some Apartment Crips.”

“The kids just started a new click in the Building … but this time they added ‘Crip’ at the end. When will the Apartment Crips ever stop?”

“Bro got jumped in right next to the vending machine. Real Apartment Crip initiation.”
