Collin is more heavily inner-ring suburbs--more Fort Bend than Montgomery as far as distance from the central city is concerned.

What is the "Montgomery" of Dallas then?
The counties surrounding the big 4.

For some reason, no one ever mentions the absolutely staggeringly large Asian American population (10%!) in Collin County when discussing its demographics.
Isn't that mostly Vietnamese, who are an R-leaning demographic?
Its lots of Indians. IIRc planes 6% Indian and vietnamese would actually explain the 2012 to 2016 swing considering Romney won them in 2012 bt 10 but Trump lost em by 30.

Also Montgomery county has even started moving left really. Trump only had a 500 worse vote margin than Mittens,
