Many gangs started appearing in Georgia in the mid 1980s, as a result of the crack cocaine epidemic. In 2003, there were an estimated 78 gangs in the Atlanta area alone.

In 2015, Atlanta police announced that they were tracking an estimated 192 gangs. In more recent times, Mexican drug cartels have established Atlanta as a major distribution hub for methamphetamine, marijuana, cocaine, and heroin.

Drug dealing is the main source of money for gang members, which has led some of the gangs to form untraditional alliances with one another. Armed robbery, commonly drug robberies, are another way in which gangs capitalize in Atlanta’s open air drug market.
