groups of middle aged people from Bucharest. where do they pass?

I think they're strongly pulled towards Serbia in looks, but there are still a lot western european and even north slavic faces from what I can see. Except for Romania, I think they fit best in Serbia and Bulgaria (and possibly Slovakia) overall as a group, but as I mentioned many of them can pass all over Europe on individual level.

I agree, it's a very heterogeneous group.

Regarding Serbia, it's interesting because in the last thread on younger groups from Cluj the consensus among Serbian members was that they don't look Serbian much at all. Now, the groups from Cluj were very young and geographically from a different region - here's the thread:

so it's not an apples to apples comparison.

Nonetheless, both Transylvania (with Banat) and Wallachia (with Oltenia) have Serbian influence, so it would be interesting to see where Serbian members think the influence is greater.

Dinarid, Norid, Alpine, Baltid, Pontid, North Pontid, Gorid, Carpathid mostly.

As whole they look more Serbian than other Romanian mass photos which I have seen here. They have longer heads, more pronounced bones, they look taller, more slim...

Many of them can pass in many parts of Europe.

any other opinions on where they pass?

Very Pan-European, it would be hard for me to guess exactly where they are from.

I classify some of them as Romanian urban hipsters.

the nice thing about Romania is that bearded hipsters are not left wing (well, most of them are not).
