I beg to differ! And so do my Mennonite neighbours on the edge of town. A horse cart selling their wares is a common feature at a nearby mall, and one of the colleges at the school where I work is for is run exclusively for their kids (suggested by many to be less about education, and more for the community to ensure that the youth are surrounded by their own kind, have acceptable and supervised fun together, and end up marrying other Mennonites). They're good neighbours and definitely a unique community.
So no, it's definitely NOT something that could only happen in the USA!
