I mean, the Avengers fight aliens and gods because they radically outpower things like criminal gangs. This doesn't mean criminal gangs don't exist, just that they are a problem which doesn't require Thor to oppose. The Hawkeye subplot in Endgame and his own show pretty much demonstrates what happens when an Avenger decides to focus on something lower level: a whole heck of a lot of mobsters just kind of die, without any meaningful opposition.
Basically, not all heroes operate on the same scale. You've got street level scrappers stopping purse snatchings and bank robberies, you've got cosmic beings traveling space fighting hostile gods, and you've got every level in between.
