Btw Idaho used to have the largest percentage of mandarin speakers in the united states. Boise had a vibrant chinatown. Its absolute whiteness is a recent construction. (Ignoring all the natives besides)
Boise's chinatown was reincorporated (read: ghettoized) into a separate town government in 1967, in backlash to the growing Chinese population flipping a mayoral election the wrong way. The resulting Garden City is almost completely surrounded by Boise.
