I guess they forgot one of those values was xenophobia, huh?

They complained that illegal immigrants were causing an increase in crime, taking jobs that would once have gone to longtime residents,
Is this really xenophobia, or a legitimate complaint? Could be either, IMO.

Also, if you were living in an apartment complex and you had a family of 8 move in above you, I'd bet you guys would want to know whether they're here legally.

The complaint is legitimate. That xenophobia as a small town trait seems fairly universal though.
