Its because its not the Magyar culture here. “Gypsies” are a specific Eastern European ethnic group without a homeland. They are everywhere is europe. We have “Travellers” here in the states. For some reason, that subculture here (nomadic and living through fringe or illegal means) has a high percentage of ethnic Irish. There are very few ethnic Gypsies that made it to this side of the Atlantic.
I’ve known a few, though not well. They even made an appearance in Car 54 Where Are You.
