I live in a retirement home in rural Arkansas. Offhand I'd say that 25% of the people here are regular readers and another 25% are occasional readers. Most of these people didn't finish high school and worked most of their lives in stores and gas stations and doing menial work, so I doubt they're likely to be called intellectuals. But a number of them do read.
