That is a good guess, but some little towns have some good graffiti artists. It just depends on what the condition of the competition is.

Most towns have grafitti artists who are just groups of pikeys who do it because they think it's cool to ruin things while smoking cigarettes.

*shrug* There really isn't much to being a graffiti artist, anyways. Most of them that are out there are just a bunch of drugged out conformists, anyways. Most of the really unique artists that came around are either dead, old, or they don't actually write graffiti anymore. I mean, there are still some really nice ones out there, but I'm not saying that there's alot of them. Alot of writers tend to "bite" or steal another's way of graffiti, and it's been warped around soo much alot of peple's work looks in some ways similar to someone elses, and it just gets repetitive and boring.

. In cities, you either get big groups of gangs, or/and actual talented people who get a kick out of spraying awesome pictures
Just a guess tho.. o_O

A large misconception from the Joe
Public is that graffiti writers are just a bunch of gang members. *shrug* Yet again, it depends on where you're talking from. If you're talking about really big cities like San Francisco and New York, yeah there's going to be alot of gang members writing graffiti. But I suppose that could be really confused from just a "crew" (just a group of graffiti writers) to a gang.
