I have "observed" the keyboard room at the new GC near me and have seen young kids (under 25) Buying controllers, and young tweenage females, accompanied by parents, testing and picking out electric pianos. Nobody bothers with the arrangers ,then again they don't stock anything decent. The guy there says controllers are all the rage, eclipsing synth/workstation sales. And his opinion was the arranger market has dwindled...
