I'm pretty sure there is one down in the basement of the apartment building someplace. This is a 1920s building.

No.

My home was built in 1951 and had a fuse box until I bought it 7 years ago. We specified in the purchase agreement that a few updates were needed, and switching to circuit breakers was one of them.

No, my home does not have a fuse box. It was built almost 20 years ago with a circuit breaker. I like those much more than the fuses.

No, we have circuit-breakers. My mom's house still has fuses (built in the mid-60s), though.

No, haven't seen those in years. The outside AC unit has a fused disconnect switch though.

We have circuit breakers, but in the UK they're colloquially known as the "fuse box" anyway

It looks something like this.

I think so. I've never heard of anyone having circuit breakers in their home, but it's not something I know much about.
