I was in Oklahoma recently and did notice that there were an alarming number of Chinese nationals working in the cannabis industry. And they work for very cheap.

Should see the flooring industry. It's immigrants all the way down (not all of them illegal) and they pay dirt cheap. But chsrge customers out the ass for install. The few english speakeing workers I talked to that been doing this since the 80s say prices for installers haven't changed since the 90s so thsy stop doing carpet and now only immigrants do that.

There is also all the cold states where half the employees get laid off for 3-4 months.
