That is an easy answer for me Kearny, New Jersey. The downtown is as if you were in Scotland. The shops are like what you would find in the Britain; a butcher, dry grocery, etc. I purchased my tank in 1997 through the Piper’s Cove there which also has a Scottish restaurant with it. The Scottish accent still lingers. Here is why from Wikipedia;
The early influx and development of industry in Kearny dates back to 1875 when the Clark Thread Company of Paisley in Scotland extended its activities to the United States by erecting two large mills in Kearny, and adding two others in 1890. These mills brought to Kearny thousands of Scots immigrants. Many of them would play on Kearny's soccer teams in National Association Football League. Many are buried at Arlington Memorial Park in the Kearny Uplands.[28]
In 1876, the Mile End Thread Mills started operating, giving employment to several hundred operators.
In 1883, the Marshall Flax Spinning Company of England erected a large plant in Kearny, known as the Linen Thread Company. Their need for experienced flax spinners brought an influx of workers from other sections of the British Isles. Families of those early textile workers were the nucleus of Kearny's present population.
