Wow, this is incredibly comprehensive—great work, thanks to authors!
Considering how many graphs and tables there are, I am surprised there’s no mention of subjective welcomeness conditional on race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic background.
Do you know if this data exists?
Also, were there any questions getting at why EA is or is not welcoming?
The low N in many of the categories of those characteristics makes any inference difficult, though there are no apparent differences in welcomeness along lines of race, education, or religion.
There was no specific question in this year’s survey following up on reasons for welcomeness ratings.

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the post.
That data certainly does exist as we discuss in a previous post: https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/S2Sonawxz2cY4YdXK/ea-survey-2018-series-community-demographics-and?fbclid=IwAR1JEucxFIdHfTqi3P2sC0FMssaZgNPeb3uaiCU3sOaOauoFLFg7Uby0lMk
