ZXY&ABC's definitions
A North Richmond, California street gang that originally began as a neighborhood baseball team in the 1980s. At its peak, Project Trojans had an estimated 300 members and controlled the cocaine, heroin, and meth trade in North Richmond. After a significant increase in violent crime in the 2000s, the feds cracked down, resulting in the formation of new gangs with different names (e.g., Swerve Team).
"The Project Trojans have controlled much of the drug trafficking within North Richmond for decades and have been the source -- directly or indirectly -- for much of the violence plaguing the community." San Francisco Chronicle, March 14, 2006

A non-Sureno gang member that runs with the South Siders in the California or Federal prison systems. A Resident Homey may have associated with Sureno gang members or ran solo on the streets.
"I've seen Residents running the block....I'm on the B Yard in the gym. And there was a cat from Maravilla that had the keys right there. Now Maravilla -- they're not Surenos. So how would somebody who technically was considered a Resident, for lack of a better term, would be running the Homies car?"
