The most common drugs found in this area are stimulant drugs (primarily cocaine and methamphetamines). A similar area has started to form in Seattle, WA. The Seattle mayor has instructed local law enforcement officials to confiscate all drugs in this area of Seattle and arrest any person who is in possession or is abusing drugs. This is the mayor's first step in cleaning up this five-block area of the city.
