It could be staying where you feel comfortable. For example, up until my twenties, I wouldnt have thought of being with anyone who wasnt black. Black people are who I grew up loving and having love me, so I just didnt desire to look any further. There is also stigma in different communities about being in interracial relationships which may deter people. Good news is, noone is a stagnant soul, we live and learn and change....even our personal tastes. I learned and expanded my options to include more than black men.

I think it is kind of natural to want to date people who resemble your family and community,,I dont find it nearly as sad as REFUSING to date those who do though. I have known both whites and blacks who REFUSE to date other whites or blacks,,,,very interesting to me in a sad way.
