Do the Indian and Bangladeshi communities have different customs regarding surnames that would lead to a more homogenous naming. Because the results seem disproportionate and shrink massively if you move the slider to the 2nd most popular name or further.

This beautifully illustrates Thomas Schelling's racial segregation model, for which he coined the term "Tipping Point" 30 years before Malcolm Gladwell popularized it:<p>Schelling, T. (1969). Models of segregation. The American Economic Review, 59(2), 488-493<p>(Schelling won the Nobel Prize in economics in 2005)

Fascinating, but not especially surprising. Some references to eg major roads or borough boundaries would be really useful!
