StatSocial’s Digital Tribes is a new consumer segmentation model with a social psychographic twist.
Digital Tribes are powered by StatSocial’s Silhouette, the industry’s most advanced Audience Intelligence Platform. Our unique technology enables us to make sense of the billions of unstructured earned and social web interactions that go on each day — allowing you to dive deep into nearly any audience you can imagine.
Using billions of inputs for over 120 million U.S. consumers, we have segmented naturally occurring populations into 100 distinct Digital Tribes.
This entry is a deeper dive into the tribe we call “Hipsters”
Digital Tribe Summary: Hipsters
Front Row (l-r): Björk, Wayne Coyne, Julian Casablancas, Jack White, James Blake. Back Row (l-r): Bon Iver, Neko Case, Thom Yorke, Beck, Tom Waits. This tribe lives in the city and skews slightly male, with a majority of its members between 25 and 44-years of age.
They are united in their loves for music, TV, brands, etc., that could be said to be, in combination, of particular appeal to “hipsters” (or, at least, former hipsters).
Please Note: The baseline used to calculate all of the statistics shown below is the average American online audience.

In psychology, the Big 5 personality traits describe a popularly-employed taxonomy that breaks down human personalities into five, broad, over-arching categories.
IBM Watson™ employs this model, and the five traits that give it its name — Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism — as the umbrella categories under which numerous, more specific personality traits can be found.
In the context of personality, Emotionality (yes, yes, we know, but emo’s are gonna emo, after all) means a comprehension of one’s own emotions, and an ability to access them in a healthy manner.
This tribe averages in the 76.5th percentile for this trait.
