We don't know how much CCG treated the public before Clown extermination right?

It's hard to say that Aogiri was stronger than them because from what I know, CCG does priority Clowns as seen during the Auction when they spotted Roma, one arrogant guy thought that by killing her - he would get a big credit, which I assume promotion. Kuroiwa did get a promotion after killing one Clown. Roma's SS rating was just speculation but assuming her rating is not known yet, one Clown is still a rare treat.

The Clowns were pretty strong back then from Yamori and Hide's words but now that they have been exterminated mostly, Aogiri is a bigger threat. However, I have a feeling that Arima's squad has been called to investigate them together with Hirako this time, meaning that CCG does fear them even when only a few members were left.

I think in the old time, the Clowns were stronger than Aogiri because they had teamwork and there were a lot of members ( as seen from multiple clown masks behind Uta in chapter 143). Aogiri has strong members but they are quite independent. There is just no trust between them.
