The source material by Mario Puzo—and the adaptation by Francis Ford Coppola—depict a world that was, by design and by era, dominated by Italian Americans, often to the explicit exclusion of other ethnic groups, reflecting both the time's realities and prevailing attitudes.

Not sure, I can only assume they focused on the areas or boroughs that were primarily Italian, seems New York was divided that way during immigration.

You answered your own question while asking it. Some of those areas might be black owned NOW but it wasn't at the time when Godfather was made or takes place, and besides the focus is on the various italian families that combined controlled most of the city.

Who says "blacks"?! Is really necessary to remove the word "people" from "black people" when talking about someone with a different skin colour? 💀

Maybe those parts of NYC weren't black at the time.
