I was reading a survey the other day and noticed that the life expectancy of Arubans is around 75 years! That was higher than I expected and I realized that I don't know anything about the local economy other than what tourism has to offer. Is the population educated? Are they wealthy, or poor? What are the main industries other than tourism?
