Why is it statistically impossible? Where one chooses to live is likely highly correlated with the job market for their skillset in that region.

  My comment was more about the demographics of the group (young, white, male) than where they chose to live.

    What are you thoughts on the demographics of the NBA?

      Even better. The demographics of Gangsta Rap please? Downvoters: What is so problematic about this sentence verses the parent's sentence? Care to explain?

        Why is it, in your view, a better example?

    This stereotype seems like one you got from the press rather than from observing what’s happening on the ground - the best companies in Silicon Valley have overwhelmingly hired East and some South Asians over the last 5 years. The not-at-all-atypical team I am part of currently at Facebook is entirely East/South Asian - zero whites, zero blacks, zero Hispanics. It does represent over 40% of the planet, though.
