They can choose areas where the median income is above average. For example, look at this map with communities with professional degrees
»www.city-data.com/top2/h188.html

overlapped with most income
»www.city-data.com/top2/z0.html

now look at where Verizon Fios is
»/gmaps/fios

now tell me with a straight face that theres no "cherry Picking" going on.
All I see is three lists. I don't see any correlation done by you proving anything.
instead of using the pins, i'll use the FIOS map with illinois as a test case.
I'll run a covariance model using cokriging of professional degrees and income as a predictive for FIOS deployment, and we'll see how it comes out.

Of course, that will not prove anything since we are still looking at a community level, which local franchises will not affect. Still though, it can indicate a pattern.
The better test would require census block or block group level deployment statistics (we're supposed to have those any day now, right?)
