Conversely, the islands do not receive the <a href="/wiki/Upwelling" title="Upwelling">upwelling</a> (cold streams) that affect the West African coast, so the air temperature is cooler than in Senegal, but the sea is warmer. Due to the relief of some islands, such as Santiago with its steep mountains, the islands can have <a href="/wiki/Orographic_lift" title="Orographic lift">orographically</a> induced precipitation, allowing rich woods and luxuriant vegetation to grow where the humid air condenses soaking the plants, rocks, soil, logs, moss, etc. On the higher islands and somewhat wetter islands, exclusively in mountainous areas, like Santo Antão island, the climate is suitable for the development of dry monsoon forests, and <a href="/wiki/Laurel_forest" title="Laurel forest">laurel forests</a>.<a href="#cite_note-pc-45">[45]</a> Average temperatures range from 22 °C (72 °F) in February to 27 °C (80.6 °F) in September.<a href="#cite_note-inmg-50">[50]</a> Cape Verde is part of the <a href="/wiki/Sahel" title="Sahel">Sahelian</a> semi-arid belt, with nothing like the rainfall levels of nearby <a href="/wiki/West_Africa" title="West Africa">West Africa</a>.<a href="#cite_note-pc-45">[45]</a> It rains irregularly between August and October, with frequent brief heavy downpours.<a href="#cite_note-pc-45">[45]</a> A <a href="/wiki/Desert" title="Desert">desert</a> is usually defined as terrain that receives less than 250 mm (9.8 in) of annual rainfall.

Praia, on the southeast coast, is the largest city on the island and the largest city and capital of the country. While most of Cape Verde receives little precipitation throughout the year, the northeastern slopes of high mountains see significant rainfall due to orographic lift, especially in areas far from the sea. In some such areas this precipitation is sufficient to support a rainforest habitat, albeit one significantly affected by the islands' human presence. These umbria areas are identified as cool and moist.

These are referred to as <a href="/wiki/Cape_Verde-type_hurricane" class="mw-redirect" title="Cape Verde-type hurricane">Cape Verde-type hurricanes</a>. These hurricanes can become very intense as they cross warm Atlantic waters away from Cape Verde. The average hurricane season has about two Cape Verde-type hurricanes, which are usually the largest and most intense storms of the season because they often have plenty of warm open ocean over which to develop before encountering land. The five largest Atlantic tropical cyclones on record have been Cape Verde-type hurricanes.

Light manufacturing accounts for most of the remainder. Fish and shellfish are plentiful, and small quantities are exported.

From 1994 to 2000 about $407 million in foreign investments were made or planned, of which 58% were in tourism,<a href="#cite_note-68">[68]</a> 17% in industry, 4% in infrastructure, and 21% in fisheries and services.<a href="#cite_note-bn-18">[18]</a> In 2011, a wind farm was built on four islands that supplies about 30% of the electricity of the country.<a href="#cite_note-69">[69]</a> As host to the <a href="/wiki/ECOWAS" title="ECOWAS">ECOWAS</a> Regional Centre for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency, inaugurated in 2010, Cape Verde plans to lead by example by becoming entirely reliant on renewable energy sources by 2025.<a href="#cite_note-UNESCO_Science_Report_2021-70">[70]</a> This policy is consistent with the host of documents adopted in 2015 paving the way to more sustainable development, including Cape Verde's Transformational Agenda to 2030, its National Renewable Energy Plan and its Low Carbon and Climate-resilient Development Strategy.

Strong economic performance was bolstered by one of the fastest-growing tourism industries in the world, as well as by substantial capital inflows that allowed Cape Verde to build up national currency reserves to the current 3.5 months of imports. Unemployment has been falling rapidly, and the country is on track to achieve most of the UN Millennium Development Goals – including halving its 1990 poverty level. In 2007, Cape Verde joined the <a href="/wiki/World_Trade_Organization" title="World Trade Organization">World Trade Organization</a> (WTO) and in 2008 the country graduated from Least Developed Country (LDC) to Middle Income Country (MIC) status.<a href="#cite_note-71">[71]</a><a href="#cite_note-72">[72]</a> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:CV-praia-in_der_avenida_cabral.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f3/CV-praia-in_der_avenida_cabral.jpg/220px-CV-praia-in_der_avenida_cabral.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="146" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="4928" data-file-height="3264"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 220px;height: 146px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f3/CV-praia-in_der_avenida_cabral.jpg/220px-CV-praia-in_der_avenida_cabral.jpg" data-width="220" data-height="146" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f3/CV-praia-in_der_avenida_cabral.jpg/330px-CV-praia-in_der_avenida_cabral.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f3/CV-praia-in_der_avenida_cabral.jpg/440px-CV-praia-in_der_avenida_cabral.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a><figcaption>Cabral Avenue, one of the main symbols of Cape Verde's development</figcaption></figure> Cape Verde has significant cooperation with Portugal at every level of the economy, which has led it to link its currency first to the <a href="/wiki/Portuguese_escudo" title="Portuguese escudo">Portuguese escudo</a> and, in 1999, to the euro.

or enslaved) and Europeans of various origins. There are also Cape Verdeans who have Jewish ancestors from North Africa, mainly on the islands of Boa Vista, Santiago and Santo Antão. A large part of Cape Verdeans emigrated abroad, mainly to the United States, Portugal and France, so that there are more Cape Verdeans residing abroad than at home. Unlike countries on the African continent, there are no tribes in Cape Verde. On the other hand, the country's historical trajectory included, from the beginning, a process of social class formation. At this moment, the absence of a "bourgeoisie" can be seen, but the existence of several types of "petty bourgeoisie" is numerically significant. The majority of the population is, however, made up of the peasantry and some working class.<a href="#cite_note-78">[78]</a><style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1219497266">.mw-parser-output

The first wave of Cape Verdean immigrants came to Massachusetts to work in the <a href="/wiki/Whaling" title="Whaling">whaling industry</a>.<a href="#cite_note-:3-87">[87]</a> When whaling declined, they moved into maritime jobs, seasonal agricultural work (like picking <a href="/wiki/Cranberry" title="Cranberry">cranberries</a>), and factory work. The second wave of Cape Verdean immigrants arrived after Cape Verde gained independence in 1975. They also found work in factories, but as <a href="/wiki/Deindustrialization" title="Deindustrialization">manufacturing plants closed down</a>, they moved into the service industry in the 1990s. Cape Verdean immigrants have also developed a vibrant small business sector, including restaurants, groceries, real estate and insurance offices, and other enterprises.<a href="#cite_note-:3-87">[87]</a> Cape Verdean immigrants in the U.S. have a long history of enlistment in the U.S. military, with a presence in every major conflict from the Revolutionary War to the Vietnam War.<a href="#cite_note-88">[88]</a> Due to centuries of colonial ties, the second largest number of Cape Verdeans live in Portugal (150,000), with sizable communities in the former Portuguese colonies of Angola (45,000) and <a href="/wiki/S%C3%A3o_Tom%C3%A9_and_Pr%C3%ADncipe" title="São Tomé and Príncipe">São Tomé and Príncipe</a> (25,000). Major populations exist in countries with cultural and linguistic similarities, such as Spain (65,500), France (25,000), Senegal (25,000), and Italy (20,000). Other large communities live in the United Kingdom (35,500), the Netherlands (20,000, of which 15,000 are concentrated in <a href="/wiki/Rotterdam" title="Rotterdam">Rotterdam</a>), and Luxembourg and Scandinavia (7,000). Outside the U.S. and Europe, the biggest Cape Verdean populations are in Mexico (5,000) and Argentina (8,000). Over the years, Cape Verde has increasingly become a net recipient of migrants, due to its relatively high per capita income, political and social stability, and civil freedom.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] Chinese make up a sizeable and important segment of the foreign population, while nearby West African countries account for most immigration. In the 21st century, a few thousand Europeans and Latin Americans have settled in the country, mostly professionals, entrepreneurs, and retirees. Over 22,000 foreign-born residents are naturalized, hailing from over 90 countries. The Cape Verdean diaspora experience is reflected in many artistic and cultural expressions, most famously the song <a href="/wiki/Sodade" title="Sodade">Sodade</a> by <a href="/wiki/Ces%C3%A1ria_%C3%89vora" title="Cesária Évora">Cesária Évora</a>.<a href="#cite_note-89">[89]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Health">Health</h3> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Cape_Verde&action=edit&section=22" title="Edit section: Health" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Health_in_Cape_Verde" title="Health in Cape Verde">Health in Cape Verde</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:PraiaCentrodeSa%C3%BAde.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/86/PraiaCentrodeSa%C3%BAde.jpg/250px-PraiaCentrodeSa%C3%BAde.jpg" decoding="async" width="250" height="128" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="1445" data-file-height="738"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 250px;height: 128px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/86/PraiaCentrodeSa%C3%BAde.jpg/250px-PraiaCentrodeSa%C3%BAde.jpg" data-width="250" data-height="128" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/86/PraiaCentrodeSa%C3%BAde.jpg/375px-PraiaCentrodeSa%C3%BAde.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/86/PraiaCentrodeSa%C3%BAde.jpg/500px-PraiaCentrodeSa%C3%BAde.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a><figcaption>A health clinic in a residential area of Praia</figcaption></figure> The infant mortality rate among Cape Verdean children between 0 and 5 years old is 15 per 1,000 live births according to the latest (2017) data from the National Statistics Bureau,<a href="#cite_note-ine.cv-90">[90]</a> while the maternal mortality rate is 42 deaths per 100,000 live births.
