PCs are very special heroes anyway. Thus, can be "special" in various aspect, including one's race. So IMHO an adventuring party don't need to represent the average racial distribution of the world.By the way, I see good amount of human PCs around me.Now I am running 2 campaigns as a DM and attending 2 campaigns as a player.Amongst those 4 parties (22 PCs), racial distribution is like,Human ... 4Deva ... 1Dragonborn ... 2Drow ... 1Dwarf ... 3Eladrin ... 2Elf ... 1Goliath ... 1Half-Elf ... 3Halfling Rogue ... 1Kalashtar ... 1Kobold ... 1Minotaur ... 1It seems that Human is still the most popular race around me. Though 3 of those 4 are in one party and thus 2 parties don't have human PC at all.(or maybe I can say we have about 5.5 human PCs as half-elf is indeed half-human. And Kalashtar is almost human. If so, I can say that more than one fourth of our adventurers are human) Game-mechanic-wise, human is still in the relatively stronger side of races IMHO. And there are people who feel comfortable to play a human than to play some alien race.</blockquote>
