Ferentari

Connections to the city center are relatively poor, because of the limited public transport available (see below) and because of the need to cross areas subject to frequent traffic jams like Chirigiu Square.

This is confirmed by the arrests of the Cămătaru mob clan, and police raids done in the Zabrăuți section of the borough after some drug-related incidents.

As such, it is the center of drug dealing in Bucharest (for example, 45 dealers have been arrested in one police action)[3] and has been the stage of a riot, a unique event in a city with very low crime rate.

Areas such as Vadul Nou, Zăbrăuți, Prelungirea Ferentari, La Maici are notorious for squatting, and resorting to violence when they are served with eviction notices.

As such, the areas developed informal networks stealing power, water and even cable TV signal directly from the mains.
