5. If the mob can only operate in cohesive Italian neighborhoods, then they are doomed. The Little Italy in KC is about 4 square blocks. There is no little Italy in Detroit and barely anything left in Chicago.
You obviously have never been to Chicago
That's a bigger joke than the one in Manhattan
Bridgeport
Elmwood
Norridge
Melrose
River Forest
Forest Park
River Grove
Stone Park
All those are still heavy Italian areas
And the Little Italy of course isn't what it used to be but there's still Italians there and it's not completely a tourist area. I've been to Manhattan's as well. Chicago's little Italy is much better compared to Manhattan's where there is no more than 5 Italian businesses.
I'd say heavily is quite an overstatement. List the % of those populations that are Italian. I bet 5-15%.
Anyway, my point is that you don't need heavily Italian areas in order for the mob to exist. What you need is white people who gamble
