Youth Gangs How old are most gang members? Although some gang members are as young as 12, the average age is about 17 to 18 years. Not many people realize that around half of youth gang members are 18 or older. These older members are much more likely to be involved in serious and violent crimes than younger members. Only about 1 in 4 gang members are ages 15 to 17.8 safeyouth.org What do you do when you haven't got a car for drive-bys, you don't have an Uzi, there are no drugs and alcohol to keep you stuporized, nor to cause turf wars.
