why do some roulette wheels seem to favor certain sections

Been watching some wheels lately and it really does look like certain sections get hit a bit more than others. I’m not talking about streaks from just randomness, more like spots that seem to pop up every session. Maybe it's the way the wheels get worn down, or maybe the ball acts different depending on speed or humidity, I don’t know. You’d think it’s always supposed to be totally random, but what I’ve seen makes me wonder if anyone here actually tracks outcomes and notices something similar. Curious to hear if you guys focus on physical biases or just play straight odds.

What matters more than the air is whether anybody's actually checking the wheel. If a place lets the same ball stay in too long, or the frets get nicked up, you'll get a section showing up more than it should and people call it luck because that's easier. On our floor years back they pulled a roulette wheel after 3 numbers out of one 9-pocket arc landed 17 times in 212 spins, not magic, the bowl was slightly off level. Humidity maybe a LITTLE, sure, but maintenance is the boring answer and usually the right one. American roulette hides a lot of junk too just from extra house edge, people don't track enough to see it
