I haven’t heard of any Gypsies/Roma of the Eastern European variety living around here, other than some of the snowbirds who live here in the Winter-early-mid November to late March- claiming to be Gypsies-but their “real” homes are in one of the far Northern states and they leave to live there the rest of the year, just like all the other snowbirds, so I think they just say that to be different. There are some real Irish Travelers who live near Ft. Worth and show up here in the Spring/summer to sell asphalt driveway and other construction work-expensive and badly done work, and they always drive brand new fancy trucks, have new equipment. But those are not Gypsies...
I remember some gaudily dressed families with dusky skin in my grandfather’s yard goods store when I worked there. They asked that a few bolts of cloth they selected be set aside for them, and then never returned to pick up their purchases. No idea what their grift was, if it was a grift. That was just weird.
But here’s some Gypsie music.
