Also, Surenos or Southern Mexicans are not the same as La Eme. Surenos are the hispanic gangs in Southern California that pay respect and taxes to La Eme gang, though there are some gangs that are directly tied to La Eme like Tortilla Flats. MS-13 is considered a Sureno gang but La Eme members are small in numbers.
I think there are somewhere between 200 and 300 La Eme member max. I think that this is really the maximum number to maintain a good organization.
