A lot of the Hmong settled in the American North and West because of the CIA's liason with the Hmong, who was a Montana boy by way of Palo Alto.
He thought the Hmong had fought hard against communism and would be massacred by the Viet Cong after the American pullout. So he lobbied hard for Hmong immigration opportunities to the States he knew best, which tended to be Northern and Western.
For this reason, delicious Hmong produce is available in improbable locations, such as the Helena, Montana farmer's market.
