I'm not american, so I was merely speculating.
in the UK we consider white people to be indiginous (even if there are british citizens who are from different descents who are equal to me in every way).
regardless, there is a certain set of areas where white people simply do not live, and they are almost entirely inhabited by Indians or British with indian descent.
(fun fact: on forms they have a "British Indian" check-box)
race doesn't matter, but they're culturally different and I was suggesting that it might explain why they'd be willing to accept lower standards of living for some money saved (which is the case in the UK)
Please stop implying I'm racist because I used the colloquial term "Americans" to mean "white people" who have out-bred and/or killed the native populace.
