  • Sureños are a group of Mexican American street gangs with origins in the oldest barrios of Southern California. There are hundreds of Sureño gangs in California, and each has its own identity on the streets. Although they are based in Southern California, their influence has spread to many parts of the US and other countries as well. The gang's alleged roots came from a jail discussion between the Mexican Mafia (La EME) and Nuestra Familia (NF). Those who sided with La EME aligned themselves in the south (sureño=southerner) while those that sided with the NF aligned themselves in Northern California. Norteños appear mostly in the northern areas of California, but are also present in numbers in western states like Washington, Oregon, Colorado, and Utah (they also have a small presence in the San Fernando Valley area of Los Angeles). Also in the south side of St. Louis MO. they have made it known that they are there. Besides Southern California, Sureños can be found in more than 30 states (primarily in southwestern and central states. While increasing in influence and power throughout the years, the Sureños hiearchy is relatively unorganized, and has made enemies, such as the Green Light Maravillas, a smaller gang that broke off in order to resist paying taxes to the Sureños. Sureño gang members often use the number 13 as gang identification, as the letter "M" is the 13th letter of the alphabet to show their alliance with "La eMe" or otherwise known as the "Mexican Mafia". Sureños represent themselves with symbols and phrases such as "Sur 13", "Los Sureños" and "Sureño Trece". These identifications are accompanied by the color navy blue, silver, and white, numeric code of number 13 and the Roman numeral of XIII. There are also many cliques in Sur 13 example of a Sur 13 clique is the S.S. C SouthSide Criminals. Southside criminals is a clique of Sur 13 that controls a few streets in LA and Las Vegas.
  • Con il termine Sureños (che in spagnolo significa "meridionali") si indica negli Stati Uniti un gruppo di svariate centinaia di bande di strada o gang della California del Sud, composte da individui di origine messicana. Esistono circa 500 gruppi Sureños, collegati con la Mafia messicana, nella sola Contea di Los Angeles che rappresentano più del 50% dell'insieme delle gang. I rivali tradizionali del Sureños sono i Norteños che affondano le radici nella Nuestra Familia. La linea di divisione territoriale fra Sureños e Norteños è stata tradizionalmente Bakersfield in California.
