I grew up in the 155 neighborhood in the 80s and early 90s them guys were hardcore gangsters! Much love to the friends and jente I met in that varrio !

Excellent work!!!

[@mateocalderon6822]

Cv155 was the first varrio in compton. An older homie from CV3 told me they got the name comoton varrio tres cuz they were the 3rd varrio in compton and 155 was the first. Because of that I assumed compton varrio Segundo was the second, naturally but they prolly got the segundo from tge street el segundo and the second cpt varrio could have be cvL36 or another one. I also always assumed cv largo36 was for the cross streets long Beach blvd and 136th st. Interesting to hear him say it was based off the alphabetical letters for compton signature. I heard cv70s got their name because they came out in the 70s. When I hear history from homies it's hard to know what's the truth because different people will tell different stories. Most of what I know is a mixture of stories from older homies, things I've read and assumptions that make sense, like assuming T Flats came later and was brought to compton by people from either torrance or the flats in boyle heights. We don't hear a lot of history on the compton varrios, mostly just the cpt crips and pirus.

Compton varrios have a deeper history in Compton

[@creepnasty5370]

Compton varrio 3 goes back to the 1950s

[@megustalamota4208]

TF is the oldest hood in Compton but yeah they migrated to the city from Boyle Heights like in 1961/62.. I think 155, 3, and largo are from the 50s
