A video shared by an American influencer, allegedly filmed in Dallas, Texas, has gone viral, capturing the sheer density of Indian eateries, grocery stores, restaurants, and lounges in the area. The clip was shared by influencer Harry, who is known across social media platforms as Pigeon Vizion.
In the video, Harry makes a bold claim: “Dallas Texas is the most Indian place in America.”
The Sight of “Little India” in Texas
The video captures a wide array of businesses catering to the Indian American community, including prominent establishments such as India Cash and Carry, Urban Tadka, and Pakoda Indian Eatery. The visual tour highlights a thriving cultural and commercial hub driven by the large and rapidly growing Indian population in the Dallas–Fort Worth (DFW) Metroplex.
Social Media Sparks a Debate
The influencer’s video sparked a flood of mixed reactions and commentary across social media, engaging viewers on the topics of immigration, cultural diversity, and local economies.
- Praise for the Community: Some individuals praised the Indian community, with one person commenting, “The Indian people are some of the nicest people in and around Dallas.”
- Widespread Multiculturalism: Other users pointed out that this concentration of ethnic businesses is not unique to Dallas, noting that most American cities feature specialized areas catering to different immigrant groups. One user remarked, “Most cities have areas that specialise in one or another type of international food/shopping.”
- Defending Local Economics: Some users defended the businesses shown, arguing that the community is simply investing in the local economy: “They literally are buying whole blocks lol don’t blame them, all they are doing is spending their money.”
- Ironic Observation: Another commenter found the influencer’s claim ironic given his location: “Drives to an Indian food hub in Dallas, complains about there being only Indian food in the Indian food hub. Smart stuff!”
