According to some of the most knowledgeable posters around here, remnants of defunct crime families are still active and spread out. Albeit not in the structured LCN form they once were but still “around” and involved. Nothing major I imagine, but enough to still shed some influence over those often forgotten locales. This is especially true along the rust belt, areas like Scranton-Wilkes Barre, Youngstown-Monongahela areas as well as Pittsburgh.

I guess we could refer to them as the “Out in the Sticks crews”.
