Surprisingly quite a few people. I work in a hospital, and most of the doctors I know still use pagers. I know older people in my company who still use pagers.
Most people have moved on, but pagers haven't stopped being relevant.
Pager are liked because it preserves your privacy , from big corporations
Also it is simple way to know , if you need to call home for anything

The smart phone devices specially ones which are connected with
Google are pretty much a
backdoor into your personal life in hand of big corporations to steal what ever they want
- Phone numbers
- contact list
- which apps you use often
- what music you listen to
- your habits like workout time
- locations you visit
- Who do you talk to often etc
- Of course accessing images of your family or friends
The theft is also inter connected with devices active in car as well
which are always trying to get access to your contact list in your phone when you connect your phone to your car
