Gambino has about 16-17 active with some crews,about 3-4 having 15-20 members each .HB/Ozone Pk crews are literal armies ,Ronnie one arm Trucchio/Alphonse crew is a like a family inside the family and has been going strong for almost 30 years ! Gurino crew is also quite large ! Genovese, believe it or not has about 26 active crews and I believe the total numbers of active,semi active,retired are underestimated and have close to 285-300 members !The recruitment pool is pretty big still in HB/OZP For the Gambinos ! Between Middle village,HB,Ozp,Glendale,ridgewood,maspeth the Queens crews and associates are GIGANTIC !
Ozone Park hardly has any Italians left. There is a small pocket of Italians along Linden Boulevard. Hardly a recruitment area at all anymore.
Seems like half of Howard Beach is up for sale, too.
Middle Village and a bit of Maspeth are still Italian but tend to have more Bonanno's.
Whitestone and Bayside are heavily Italian, and a bit of College Point.
I just don't see how it is demographically possible for there to be "small armies" of crews in ozone/HB anymore.
