Received some interesting data (updated to May 1st 2006) from the City
Hall late last week that was pretty interesting (for me at least). My
city has nearly double the number of gaigins as a percentage of the
population, but they are for the most part pretty invisible.

Went for a drive through rural Nukata yesterday - no foreigners, no
young people. The countryside is just empty.
