In 1984 an OG from Lueders Park Piru named OG Bartender who lived on Elm Street started the Elm Street Pirus after he grew tired of traveling all the way to Leuders Park for functions. Elm Street Pirus also goes by the names Elm Lane Mafia and Elm Street Mob. As with most other Blood sets under the Piru card, Elm Street Pirus wear burgundy as their color. They are also known to wear red to show their affiliation to the Bloods and brown to symbolize the bark of an Elm tree. Elm Street Pirus claim “East Side” to show that they are a Piru set from the east side of Compton. They are known to use the term “356%” o show their affiliation because 356 is the number you get if you dial “Elm” on a phone. The Elm Street Pirus are broken down into the following 5 hoods: 700 Block Burris Ave, 700 Block Poinsettia Ave, 1000 Block Mayo Ave, 1000 Block Sloan Ave, and 1000 Block Kemp Ave. Their territory lies adjacent to the Lueders Park Piru, who they consider allies along with the Cedar Block Piru and the Fruit Town Pirus. Their enemies include the Santana Blocc Compton Crips, Kelly Park Compton Crips, South Side Compton Crips and the Compton Varrio Tortilla Flats.
