Well technically, there are 2 gangs total that are mentioned in the book: The greasers and the Socs.
(It mentions some other named gangs, but never describes them)
The greasers are ALL of the people on the East side.
(Tim Shepard's gang, The brumbly boys, and Ponyboy's outfit are all greasers)
They are very poor and wear leather jackets, jeans, boots or tennis shoes, and their hair long and greased back. They are sorta like hoods, who get into trouble often.
The Socs are ALL the people on the West side.
(Bob, Randy, Cherry, and Marcia are all Socs)
They are VERY RICH and VERY POPULAR. They drive Mustangs and Corvairs. They dress very nicely and jump greasers for fun. They sometimes are a disgrace and other times are an asset to society. But they are usually up to no good when on thr East side of town.
Other than that, there are no other gangs in the book that are in any way associated with the storyline! :)

Why do young adults choose to join gangs and does it involve poverty?
Young adults choose to join gangs because when you are poor or in poverty people, get together and help each other. It is kinda like The Outsiders when Ponyboy and Johnny are in a gang called the "Greasers". There are more gang members, but I ain't telling. They are often jumped by the Socs and the Socs were rich kids and picked the poor which are the Greasers. Young adults join gangs because of protection and finding someone who might be closest to you.
What is The Outsiders about?
The Outsiders is a novel about 2 gangs of kids. One group being known as the greasers and the other group known as socs. compete in rumbles, fights, jumps, to prove who is better.
Why are socs and greasers rivals in the book outsiders?
The Greasers fight in the book The Outsiders because the Soc's drive around in their fancy cars looking for trouble. They go around and jump kids like Johnny and almost Ponyboy. The Greasers are considered dirty and a menace to society, while the Soc's are consider rich kids who never start trouble. The Greasers fight because they feel like they must protect and defend themselves. The two gangs also fight because each gang has their own problems and they take it out on each other. In the story, the fighting escalates to rumble. Eventually, Ponyboy(Greaser) and Randy(Social) realizes that the fighting is useless. They realize that it isn't going to solve their own problems. As Cherry Valence had previously said, they all watch the same sunset.
In what way does Darry look different from the other greasers?
He wears his hair short. Everyone else wears it long and slicked back with grease.
How were ponyboy and his brother different from other hoods or greasers?
They only fight when they have to. They don't go around jumping people like the other Greasers do. They also care more about friendship and family. And they have a better understanding of loyalty.
How do Ponyboy and his brother differ from the other Greasers?
because the greasers are oily
