Living in Bahamas
Consisting of over 700 islands and islets, the Bahamas is located in the Atlantic Ocean, to the southeast of Florida in the United States and North of Cuba and Hispaniola. It is hard to categorise the amount of land, but it is estimated that the Bahamas takes up 470 000 square kilometres of ocean space. As low-lying islands, no peak exceeds 20 metres above sea level, apart from Mount Alvernia which has an elevation of 63 metres, on Cat Island. Demographically, the Bahamas has a large working age population with 67.2% of the population of only 391 232 people are aged 15 to 64. 90.6% of the population identify as Black, marking a stark contrast to the history of colonialism three centuries prior to the 2010 Census, where 74% of the population was White. The Bahamas gained independence from the United Kingdom in 1973, and since then has run as a democracy. It is known as one of the richest countries in the Americas; its economy is largely based on tourism and finance. Tourism accounts for 60% of the GDP and provides over half the population with work. Despite the tourism, strong traditional culture remains, with basketry and voodoo dolls, which are contested in their tradition, remaining ever important to tourists.
