Those kind of villains don't provide a lot of visual interest. When you have a superhero like Spider-Man with all these powers and abilities, seeing him going against glorified gangsters isn't very interesting. It's fine for comics or cartoons where you have a serial narrative and so you can afford to vary stuff but generally superhero movies, live-action superhero movies, favor big flashy colorful threats and high stakes. That's why street-level or smaller scale threats rarely show up on the movies and are relegated to the side.
One of the major reasons why the Daredevil movie failed for instance, well among the many reasons given, is that many people felt it was too gritty (which it was for its time) and full of martial artists in tights. So people who are curious about superheroes don't find it fun, and those who want grounded martial arts movies think, "I can watch Bruce Lee, an actual martial artist, wearing no masks, fight other stunt guys at the top of their game instead". Daredevil doesn't have a lot of visual interest to translate out of the comics medium (which is why there has never been a Daredevil cartoon) and his success as a Netflix show is indicative of that. The Punisher same story...dude who fires guns and shoots people, okay that concept sells, but it doesn't sell in a superhero story that depends on visual interest and novelty (i.e. seeing something you can't see in any other genre).
