Yes, interpreted languages are popular!

A recent survey of occupations in the United States says that
there are about a half million programming jobs.

One vice president at a major supplier of APL, estimates that
there are about 80,000 APL programmers, but possibly not all
of these would classify their jobs as as "programming".  These
may include people who work in some other profession, but who
use APL extensively.
