Keeping a Low Profile (As Much As Possible)

Al Capone’s ability to stay ahead and maintain his dominance in the criminal underworld was bolstered by his meticulous efforts to cover his tracks. He operated almost entirely under the radar by avoiding the registration of property in his name and adopting a nomadic lifestyle. Capone and his crew could swiftly commandeer an entire train car and relocate at a moment’s notice.

They would vanish from one city to the next, from Miami to Arkansas, converting their hideouts into opulent retreats. While Capone was notorious for his ruthlessness, he was also a shrewd and cautious boss who left no room for failure, especially when it came to the risk of being apprehended and losing the empire he had painstakingly built. Legal or not, he remained dedicated to staying one step ahead of the law and his rivals.
