Abstract:

There is a perception in North Carolina that gangs are a big-city problem in places like Charlotte, Raleigh, and Fayetteville. The reality is that gangs can be just as prevalent in smaller communities, but it is the larger cities that are better equipped to handle them. Lail discusses how Charlotte-Mecklenburg and other communities are dealing with gang problems.
