== Race Distribution Statistics 2006 ==
 
Tarutaru males have been snatched out of the number one spot once again by Hume males. Perhaps the Hume males' persistent popularity is due in part to the familiarity of their looks and gestures. The other races have remained the same in ranking, but Vana'diel is seeing a change in the gender of its population. The males of all races but Tarutaru have relatively increased since the last census, but females of all races are on the decline. 
Like last year, the general image of each race appears to influence character size selections, i.e. Tarutaru are more often of the smallest size, while Galka players usually choose the largest model. The only real change seen this year is in the size of most Elvaan males, which has shifted from large to medium.
