Romani (Gypsy) people in the US (school, shops, money)

[robertpasa]

Where you seen large groups of Romani people in the USA? Wiki just says there are a lot in Oregon and Utah, and in most large cities. I mean European gypsies who are also in Romania.

I'm not talking about "Irish Traveller" people who are the in recent TLC series and are in West Virginia and Virginia.

I found some threads about them in Chandler, Arizona, but they may have moved on. Have you seen any in Los Angeles or San Francisco? If so, where?

There are quite a lot in the Spokane area in Eastern WA.

I came across them in Alabama calling themselves Cherokee Gypsies.

San Francisco and Seattle are a haven for them

I went to school with some. They are still around and have loads of money.

In every city in America. Roma stick to their own mostly in cities and still have psychic shops. The men coat roofs and driveways, and sell roses in the street among other things. A lot of other types of travelers have something against them, but they never bothered me and I've always found them to be decent people.
