Some Hispanic groups are modeled after the California style, but don't claim either Surenos or Nortenos affiliation. Many of these groups claim the color brown, and may use Surenos symbols. They are frequently referred to as Brown Pride gangs. QVO, La Raza, and Big Dick Gang (BDG) are brown pride gangs found in Salt Lake area.

Two trends have recently been identified within Utah's Hispanic gang culture.

• The area is seeing more California transplants from Surenos affiliates, including 18th Street, Avenues - 43rd Street, Florencia 13, White Fence, 38th Street and others. These new arrivals have caused some street level gang alignments to shift.
• The area has seen an increase in gang members from Mexico's large drug cartel gangs, including the Sinaloan Cartel (Sinaloan Cowboys) and the Juarez cartel. It appears that as much as 70 to 80% of the area's street level narcotics have been transported in either from or through Mexico. Drug gang members in the area are involved in the distribution of cocaine, Mexican tar heroin, marijuana, and methamphetamines.

Crips may use the word "Crip" in the name of the gang, may write insults to Bloods, like "BK" (Blood Killer), and typically claim the dark blue as their color. Large Crip gangs in the Salt Lake metro area include Tongan Crip Gang, Lay Low Crips, Sons of Samoa, Tongan Crip Regulators, Tongan Style Gang, Original Laotian Gang, Salt Lake Posse, and others.

Blood gangs will often have the word "Blood" or "Piru" in their gang name, may write insults to Crips like "CK" (Crip Killer), and typically claim red as their color. Large Blood gangs in the area include Kearns Town Bloods, Tiny Oriental Posse, and others.
 

Folk affiliates use the number 6, the six-pointed star of David, an upward -pointing pitchfork with three prongs, and a playboy bunny with the right ear bent as their symbols. They also tend to wear their identifiers on the right side of their body (i.e., six earrings in the right ear, a six-pointed star shaved into the right side of the head, etc.). Folks gangs found in the Salt Lake area include Gangster Disciples, Ambrose, Black Mafia Gangsters and King Mafia Disciples. Folks gangs in the Salt lake area most often affiliate with Blood gangs, although this does not hold true for Gangster Disciples or Ambrose.

People affiliates use the number 5, the 5-pointed Star of Islam, a 3 or 5-pointed crown, a downward-pointed pitchfork, and a dollar sign as their symbols. They usually wear their identifiers on the left side of their bodies. People gangs found in the Salt Lake area include the Latin Kings, and the Vice Lords.
 

Motorcycle gangs have traditionally had a great deal of involvement in criminal activities. They are involved in the production, transportation, distribution and use of illegal drugs. They have been linked to money laundering, murder, witness intimidation, extortion, theft, rape, kidnapping, prostitution, and weapons violations. They often attempt to cover their illegal activities with legal businesses like towing companies, repair shops, escort services, security companies, bars and motorcycle shops.
 

• Straight Edge: The most moderate, they typically follow the beliefs, but may or may not be involved in aggressively forcing them on others.
• Straight Edge Vegans: These Straight Edgers have adopted a vegan lifestyle in addition to their SXE beliefs, and typically abstain from animal products.
• Hardline or Militant Vegan: The most prone to be involved in violence, many of these individuals are also members of Animal Liberation Front. SXE members of ALF have committed $2.5 million in bombings in the Salt Lake area since 1996.

Straight Edgers are far more likely to be Caucasian and to come from the middle or upper class than traditional street gang members. The distinctive Straight Edge style includes close-cropped or shaved hair, tattoos (often featuring slogans like "Drug Free," "Hardline," or the letter "X"), customized t-shirts with SXE slogans imprinted in Old English-style letters, large baggy clothing, body piercing, and heavy silver necklaces and chains. SXE members use the X as their most common symbol.

Animal Liberation Front (ALF) is a shadowy extremist group operating around the United States. ALF utilizes a leaderless resistance concept where individual cells operate on their own initiative without centralized leadership, to accomplish similar goals. Typical ALF targets around the country have included fur farms, animal processing plants, meat markets, furniture stores (leather furniture), etc. One of the ALF's primary goals is to put animal-related businesses out of business through "economic sabotage." Acts committed by ALF around the country range from molotov cocktail and pipe bombings to graffiti and other types of vandalism.
 

Racist skinheads are often referred to as "boneheads" by non-racist skinheads, and are probably the most familiar to Utahns. Identifiers worn by racist skinheads include: flight jackets (often with Nazi, KKK or confederate patches), braces (suspenders with the colors of the group), shirts (normally a polo shirt buttoned to the top or a concert T-shirt from a racist group like Skrewdriver), rolled up jeans or Dickies, and Dr. Marten boots (which are now made with Kevlar toes). Racist skinheads may also have tattoos featuring Nazi symbols. Common identifiers include 88 (Heil Hitler), 18 (Adolph Hitler), swastikas and the Nazi SS lightening bolts. The racist skinhead agenda includes 4 key beliefs:

• The white race is superior to all others.
• Other races are subhuman or "mud people." Only those races which can show blood in the face, i.e., blush, are truly human.
• All accomplishments in the world have been brought about by white men and women.
• The Zionist Occupational Government (ZOG) controls the U.S. Government and the media.

Some skinheads are tied to the Christian Identity Movement which teaches that whites, not Jews, are the true nation of Israel. Others worship the old pagan Norse gods. Skinheads often view themselves as the protectors of the white race. For that reason, typical skinhead victims might include racial minorities, "race traitors" (people who are married to ethnic minorities), and gays/lesbians.
