This sounds like a myth.
But yeah, the town has a reputation and none seem to dispute it.

Interesting, I didn't know any of this. I honestly thought I was getting off the interstate into the ghetto--maybe just a different kind of ghetto

It's not a myth. It happened. Google it

There are a lot of myths surrounding Vidor. The reputation is earned but exaggerated as it's not what it used to be. The KKK basically no longer exists and there are different races now living in Vidor including blacks, Indians/Asians, Mexicans, etc
Is there still racism there? Yes of course but probably no worse than the racism we see from Dems in CA or NY.
I do remember that when they built Government housing in Vidor and put a fence around it the locals allegedly called it their zoo.
