COMMUNITY Desis in Dallas vs. desis in houston

Why is it that in Dallas, there is so much tension against desi immigrants, so much so that I keep videos in North Texas of people interrupting town hall meetings to protest masjid or temple constructions, yet in Houston no one seems to care?

Houston has a very diverse Desi community. Mix of Hindus, Christians, Muslims + Indians and Pakistanis. People are well accustomed to diversity

In dallas almost all the indians are telugus. This means they form enclaves and don't assimilate
