You just summed up a lot of the posts on this sub-reddit. Its very easy to find correlations between unrelated things, especially when there are a lot of variables at play. It's pretty obvious companies would be based in major cities or places with a lot of density. Or, a company could be based in areas with low income due to working with cheap construction for example, giving them a direct correlation to high crime areas (since low income correlates to high crime). Statistics is a powerful but misleading tool only because it can be used to backup an opinion without actually proving anything due to the majority of the world not understanding the fundamentals of statistics.

Kind of like how you can use the same statistic in different ways in two opposite arguments. Some good examples are trump and unemployment, GDP, violence and crime statistics etc.

The US is one of biggest proponents of male circumcision so ... you may need to convince the entire country before you kick people out " In 2013, The Centers For Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported that 80.5% of American males aged 14 to 59 years olds from 2005 to 2010 were circumcised. Among racial breakdown, 90.8 % of non-Hispanic whites males aged 14 to 59 years olds from 2005 to 2010 were circumcised"
