"It really isn't like that everywhere in North America" I totally agree. America is a big place, so is Europe. It's varied. But I would say, on the whole that EU is far more 'enclave-ish' than the US. In fact, Europe is a big patchwork of ethnic enclaves. America is not. People identify a lot less with their identity. And yes, for sure, some people, i.e. Orthodox Jews, Mennonites etc. are different.
