I'd say these are mainly popular among people who could be categorized as Apple enthusiasts; I've seen these on various Apple-related discord servers, news sites like macrumors or mastodon, bluesky profiles.

Nobody from my friends who happens to own an iPhone uses memoji avatars - they either prefer plain "old" pictures in their avatars or no avatars at all. Maybe not everyone wants to look like a cartoon character - I wouldn't be surprised if this could be perceived as childish behavior on levels of using anime avatars.

100%

having a memeoji avatar indicates you're a tech person like having an anime avatar indicates you like anime

Here another data point from someone who should be in the everybody collection; I know 0 people who use that.

I don’t know anyone using it. Are there any stats?

If anything, I’m associating cartoon avatars with Meta, I see more of them on fb and Instagram.

I always assumed the younger users use it. But I have no stats on it.
