In 10 years (since 2004), over 400-600 users, I've seen exactly one instance of Access in use, and that was by a developer (not a casual user) who had been using it prior to 2004. On the flipside, Excel and Word are so prevalent that they've now become the default "operating system" - window/OS X are secondary to those two apps.
