I agree as an European resident that is varies by country, but my impressio=
n is that it is a lot less. For example, fiber cuts on the European racetra=
ck (London/Paris/Frankfurt/Amsterdam/London) seems to involve buried cable.=
It may just be a difference in regulatory regimes.

Right. Here in France it (aerial running along with copper) happens
even close to metropoles (like Paris).
