So, You Wanna Know About Jacksonville's Gang Scene? Buckle Up, Buttercup!
Jacksonville, sunshine, beaches, maybe a sprinkle of...gang activity? Now hold on there, don't let the headlines turn your vacation plans upside down. But yeah, there's definitely a rumble in the jungle (or should we say, the Duval County concrete jungle?).
Here's the thing: how many gangs are there? That's a question that keeps even the JSO (Jacksonville Sheriff's Office) on their toes. Numbers get tossed around like confetti at a Winn-Dixie grand opening. We've heard 32, 55, even whispers of a rogue gang entirely made up of disgruntled retirees who fight over the best shuffleboard courts.

Why the Confusion?
Well, Jacksonville's gang scene is less "organized crime" and more "neighborhood throwdown throwdown." Think less Godfather, more your next-door neighbor blasting polka music at 3 AM. These groups are tight-knit, local, and love repping their turf. But compared to the nationwide, hierarchical gangs, they're more like a rambunctious scout troop with a penchant for graffiti.
Tip: Be mindful — one idea at a time.
