are triads and yakuzu even that big in the U.S.? If they are im guessing west coast. But i doubt anything anywhere else except in maybe some chinatowns
Triads and Triad-affiliated gangs are extremely active in the Chinatowns ( especially the one in New York) and in the West Coast ( especially in San Francisco). Like I said before, they are mostly composed of newer arrivals from the Chinese community rather than being composed of descendants of the Chinese that lived in the USA hundred years ago. Yakuza has a presence on the West Coast, but they mostly let Hmong gangs do the dirty work. Apparently they struck a partnership with these gangs.
