Of course it does, especially in isolated communities. In his classic book Cider with Rosie (about his childhood in Gloucestershire in the 1920s) Laurie Lee has the line, "Quiet incest flourished where the roads were bad."
Then again, a lot depends on what you consider incest. Sex between first cousins is illegal in some places but not in others.

Why does so many people think that incest only occurs with "hillbillies"? Yes incest really is out there, sad to say. It is just some one that don't have their right mind. It has nothing to do with "hillbillies"! It is also a form of abuse.

Yes. Usually incest involves the rape of a daughter by her father or step-father.

Yes, it's not unusual, although it's less common in Europe than in some African and Asian cultures.

Yes and more so between mother and son than father and daughter
