<quoted text> Canuk, I can't believe you are a product of the Canadian educational system, you must be an immigrant. There are some 2,640,000 urban dwelling in Cuba,that means that the best possiblity is that 1 in 5 has a phone (that is 20% just in case you cannot do the math). My numbers of 545,000 phone lines, include those used by government, hotels, business, etc. The actual number of phone lines available to the people is around 175,000 which would make it just about 6% of the urban dwellings. Stop posting on this subject, I don't want the other readers to cotinue laughing at you.

The average household in Cuba is 5 to 6 individuals including children, so the 12 million cubans live in about 2 million households. If all homes had phones that would be 2 million phones but the system only has capacity for 500,000 phones. Rural communities may have a phone in the post office. And by rural , towns of 2 to 3 thousand individuals are rural. The land lines serve the population as before. The fools above would have you believe that latin america is as developed as the USA or Canada. They claim that a child living at home should have his own phone or the system is failing.

US Census Bureau. Facts about Cuban American:
Cuban Americans have acquired an enormous amount of wealth and prosperity in an extremely short period of time; no other immigrant group has achieved this as quickly as the Cubans. Many immigrants have never achieved it at all, despite being in this country far longer than Cubans.
Second-generation Cuban-Americans were more educated than even Anglo-Americans. More than 26.1% of second-generation Cuban-Americans had a bachelor's degree or better versus 20.6% of Anglos. Thus Cuban-Americans in 1997 were approximately 25% more likely to have a college degree than Anglos.
Other Hispanic groups lag far behind. Only 18.1% of South Americans had a bachelor's or better. Puerto Ricans, despite being U.S. citizens by birth, recorded a disappointing 11%; Mexicans only 7%.
In 1997, 55.1% of second-generation Cuban-Americans had an income greater than $30,000 versus 44.1% of Anglo- Americans. Thus Cuban-Americans are approximately 20% more likely to earn more than $30,000 than their Anglo-American counterparts. All other Hispanic groups lag far behind in average income.
In 1997, 36.9% of second-generation Cuban-Americans had an income greater than $50,000 versus 18.1% of Anglo- Americans. Cuban-Americans were twice as likely to earn more than $50,000. Also, approximately 11% of Cuban-Americans had incomes greater than $100,000 versus 9% of Anglo-Americans, and less than 2% of other Hispanics.
Cubans comprise less than 4% of the U.S. Hispanic population, Mexicans 65%, Puerto Ricans 10%, Central and South Americans 11%, and "others" 10%. Yet of the top 100 richest Hispanics in the U.S., more than 50% are of Cuban descent (ten times what it should be on a population basis), and 38% of Mexican descent. The rest is scattered among all other Hispanic groups.
