My go-to coffee shop in Cambridge, MA is in the same building as the Broad institute and across the street from MIT. I'd say about half the conversations I overhear are about biology/life sciences and a quarter are math (topology is common, as far as I can tell).
Of course the people sending out invoices aren't having conversations! But still, almost surely there'd be a different distribution. More science, less film.

When I lived in Brooklyn, as gentrification rolled down from Park Slope, it became difficult to find a cafe that wasn't overrun by mommy gangs.
