There are 9 families that are still considered pretty much across the board to be viable - the five New York families, New England, New Jersey, Philadelphia, and Chicago.

On the flip side are areas where there are still members left but not really a formally structured, viable family. Those would include Pittsburgh, Tampa, Cleveland, Kansas City, Los Angeles, and other places.

Then there are two families in a sort of grey area. Buffalo and Detroit. The families are still there, at least technically, but they don't have the size or activity level of Chicago, New England, New Jersey, or Philadelphia, let alone the five New York families.


Mods should mind their own business and leave poster's profile signatures alone.
