New Orleans Hoods
Map and Tour of New Orleans Streets
A map that shows the real streets of the New Orleans hoods and urban communities in the areas of Uptown, Downtown, NO East, the West Bank and Jefferson Parrish. It should be noted that there has never been a New Orleans gangs problem as most people are affiliated to their own section, meaning only claiming to certain New Orleans hoods rather than a gang like the Bloods or the Crips.

New Orleans Hoods
New Orleans hoods are divided into four sections: Downtown, Uptown, N.O. East, and West Bank.
Downtown used to consist of the old St. Bernard, Iberville, Lafitte, Desire, and Florida housing projects, but now it mostly consists of New Orleans hoods in the 6th Ward, 7th Ward, 8th Ward, and the 9th Ward. Before white flight, most of the New Orleans neighborhoods were segregated, being either strictly for white families or black families. The black community was only in a few areas like the Upper 9th Ward and Treme.
In Uptown, the 3rd Ward gained much notoriety over the years. It was one of the first black areas in the Uptown section and was home to hip-hop artists like Master P, Soulja Slim, and Juvenile. The majority of the city’s housing projects were also located in the 3rd Ward, including the Calliope, Melphomeme, and Magnolia.
Outside of the 3rd Ward, there was the 10th Ward and the old St. Thomas development, the 13th Ward, 17th Ward, 11th Ward, and the 12th Ward. These places helped bread famous people like Tyler Perry, Lil Wayne, Mystikal, B.G., and numerous others.
In the N.O. East, white flight led people to move into the newer homes and apartment complexes of the East that became predominantly black by the 1990s. Today, New Orleans East is one of the city’s most active neighborhoods with many similarities to Uptown and Downtown.
The West Bank and Jefferson Parrish became a community during the middle part of the 1900s as people were leaving the urban neighborhoods of the city of New Orleans.
After Hurricane Katrina, many black families moved into West Bank neighborhoods outside of the already small existing black communities that had already been around for generations. While the 15th Ward and Fischer Projects held the reputation for West Bank, other areas that have also been reputable have included Kennedy Heights, Terrytown, Bridge City/Westwego, sections of Marrero and Harvey as well as Gretna’s Jones Town, Out In The Green, and McDonoghville.
3rd Ward is probably the most legendary ward in NOLA. Calliope, Magnolia, Melpomene, 3NG, Parkway, Zion City, Josephine, etc.
3z Up for that 3rd Ward & Hornz Up for that UPT.

New Orleans is a mafia city , you had the New Orleans / Marcello Crime Family who pretty much ran the gambling rackets in Louisiana.
NOLA do got sum 662 MOB Pirus
Yes mostly uptown, N.O East and curtain parts of the 7th Ward but the city don’t have crips
Ain’t there a GD hood somewhere in the West Bank ? Like in Westwego ?
only gds are in lower 9th ward and ponchatrain and gentilly woods they official everybody else is posers
There is no Bloods, Crips, Hoover Criminals, Gangster Disciples, or Vice Lords in the inner cities of NOLA. ..maybe in the outskirts but definitely not in them wards. It’s all neighborhoods, projects, blocks, and hybrid gangs.
Most infamous hybrid gangs in the N.O. was cliques like the Hot Boyz, Cutt Boyz, Dooney Boyz, Porch Boyz, Gotti Boyz, 110ers, 39ers, Byrd Gang, Ghost Gang, Young Melph Mafia, Ride Or Die Gang, 150, etc.
New Orleans does have a Simon City Royals presence in the Northshore area and St. Bernard Parish.
Didn’t New Orleans have a Latin King presence as well? I heard they had a chapter in Jefferson Parish.
Yeah they had a chapter in Kenner back in the 1990s but I’m not sure if they’re even around anymore. I remember when MS-13 tried to establish a clique out here too back in the early 00s but NOPD shut them down quick
I’ve met some Royals that were from St. Tammany Parish in the North Shore. They’re like a hundred deep in the North Shore parishes ( Tangipahoa, Washington, St. Tammany )
Royals are very popular in Mississippi , so it’s not surprising they’re starting to trickle down in Southern Louisiana. Royals are very popular in Slidell & Lacombe
yes it is theres bloods in hollygrove, magnolia projects has nine deuces and $MM, Lower 9th has GDS so does gentilly woods, sugar hill has rollin 60s nhc, 7th ward has a few crips and bloods, 3NG is tied to Rollin 30s harlem crips, calliope has crip ties, and ptown has blood ties
You should edit the map to distinguish Crips, Bloods, etc
We dont have those in New Orleans
There has to be Crips & Bloods lol. May not be big or established but they must frequent somewhere or clique up with someone lol
You’re more likely to find those type of organizations somewhere in the outskirts of NOLA like Jefferson Parish..not in the actual city. Shreveport is the only Louisiana city that has official Blood, Crip, & Hoover sets. Hell, they even call Shreveport “Little Compton”
missing haydel manor in marrero and behrman in algiers
missing the jungle in the east
where the jungle at ? also where is the gap and checkerboard ?
This was so accurate only a few places missing but over all amazing shout out to the villa not silverlilly????
in westwego they also got the ave j projects which is where wego housing authority is located too, its also called mid city heights. and claiborne gardens AKA david development is called the dave. also out in the green aint never been really a hood its a mixed blue collar area and it start by lafayette ave not huey p long. and terrytown they also got timeclock AKA whitney manor its some hood apartments between some nicer sections. also marrero got haydel manor it get poppin back there
In Algiers you missing two big hoods D-Block (Degaulle Manor) and Mclendonville. Algiers Point aint even a hood that’s white folks.
lol part of over the hump is in algiers point if u talking bout dark side and thts definitely the hood . and even on the light side the only hood they got is bronzeville but the white folks use to call it belleville, not rlly a poppin hood no more its a mixed area with a lot of old ppl it used to be more dangerous . also they missing the other section of the cutoff from sullen place to the army base, that bx ducked off and wild too. and some parts bordering mcclendonville between shirley and odeon it used to be buku white folks over there but now its mostly black and more violent nowadays
Never hered of bronzeville at all and Over the Hump is really two neigborhoods Whitney + Macdonoughville but we natives call it Over the Hump cause it’s the first hood you see crossing the bridge and Macdoughville exstends to JP so they call the Orleans Parish side Over the Hump while the JP side claim Macdoughville. The Point is right on top of Over the Hump and didn’t allow blacks to even be there during segregation. Little history for ya.
“the point” aint exist til the 70s as a term lol. way back it was split into “villes” like how theres mclendytonville, mcdonoghville. the rich white part of algiers point was called duverjeville way back it was where the plantation owners were at, close to the ferry landing like seguin, powder, bermuda, delaronde all the streets w mansions. but belleville / bronzeville (east side of algiers point) was the section where blacks could live, streets like elmira, pacific, belleville, atlantic . that lil part was mostly black for a long time and still is like half black, while the older “duverjeville” parts are still damn near all white. also some streets over the hump use to be heavily white like slidell, homer, brooklyn
They been calling it Algiers Point since 1800s I advise you to do reaserch instead of scrolling through uncited sources on Wikipedia.

at one point the whole “algiers point” area was part of duverjeville (riverside of opelousas from powder to vallette st) . a fire destroyed the plantation and its houses, and they started building downriver which is when they built belleville, mclendonville (called tunisburg back then) and was meant for slaves, free blacks, and irish / german immigrants to live, basically the ppl with less money
whole city is a giant hood….i just wish they would stat there and not move to Atlanta,Houston,Charlotte bringing that hood mentality
New Orleans East got diffrent hoods like The Gap, The Goose, The Checkerboard, Pines Village, E-Sho (Eastshore Little Woods), Tara Lane, Skyview, and Georgetown . These are the worse areas but the East got some nice middle class parts too
Good look on the info
also marrero made up of a few different hoods like walkertown and lincolnshire (original black hoods), and BOA/back of ames and westminister (used to be all-white but now heavily black) . solid tho
Appreciate the info
How can I find a gangs location Hispanic that green and black
u missing over the hump (algiers point darkside between homer st and mcdonogh) and the area u calling the cutoff is actually whitney. cutoff wayyy further down around “old aurora” and “tall timbers” area. also the hood area of jefferson is called shrewsbury
People claim Bloods in New Orleans I think their Crips too but it’s definitely bloods in the New Orleans
Lmao ain’t no crips and the bloods are influenced by Wayne. They are made up hybrid fake ass sets like a 59 Bounty Hunter. Wtf is that. Bunch of misguided kids in the East raised by single mothers
They had bloods and crips on the westbank back in the days. G-slimm and nem
Wayne had nothing to do with it some say it has to do with Vincent Owens originally from New Orleans but was raised in West Compton the first founders of the of Pirus & Bloods gang back in 1969 way before Wayne was ever born they even got 50’s Brims tapped in Nola now.
