From what I've gathered the Outfit ever since it's big bust in the 80's with the Casino's leading to the murder convictions brought up in Family trials, the mob in chicago probably want to have a break and just keep low key and carry on traditional mob crimes. Such as gambling, Loan Sharking and extortion. It is also said to be involved to and extent still in the unions and has many legitimate businesses. Numbers wise I'm not sure what to make of it, I suppose 30 members and 100 associates sounds right, but I did expect more since wasn't the Chicago mob in the 80's bigger than the Philly mob in the 80's? And now they are the same size?

Recent indictments also show how they were involved with a Biker gang performing robberies. Also that cop was arrested for involvement in a national scale jewelry theft ring. If you ask me, they still got some good money makers going on, but no drugs to keep the heat off. This way they will probably start to rebuild slowly but probably keep the numbers down as well..
