Abstract

•We compared the effect of gang membership on crime and victimization for males and females.•Gang males are more frequently involved in crime and victimization than gang females.•However, the impact of gang membership on serious crime was generally more pronounced for females.•We find no evidence that gang membership is less criminogenic for females.
