Not prison per se but Sudhir Venkatesh did a great book about the underground economy of NYC.

What's interesting is that unlike places like Chicago where criminals just kind of stay and deal drugs in their own neighborhood, in NYC they float (hence the book name) all over the city and across different social and economic groups.
Recently read Floating City, a book on the underground world of drugs/sex trafficking in NYC. I'm convinced at least 50% of these boutiques are drug fronts or prostitution ring headquarters for rich heiresses and heirs.
