Before I retired, I'd done more GYN exams than I'd ever care to admit. It wasn't my specialty, but I was the only one qualified... The answer is, yes. Once a girl hits puberty and starts becoming a woman, she will get a little hair. Some more than others. Generally speaking, it's only western cultures that think hair is unsightly. I would not recommend shaving. Shaving may cause razor bumps, the ingrown hair and then there's the risk of a nick, if you're insistant upon ridding yourself of this, I'd recommend a dipilatory like Neat or Nare, followed immediately by a rinse with vinegar (these are a mild acid based solution and vinegar will stop the burn) and then washing with soap and water -- unless of course you want to smell like a salad!

It is due to HIRSUTISM - The most common cause of excessive facial hair in women is hirsutism a medical condition in which the body begins to produce more male hormones which leads to excessive hair growth all over the body and on the face. The symptoms of hirsutism include: thick, dark hairs on chin, on the upper lips, around the nipples, on the cheeks and on the abdomen. Hirsutism often runs in families and shows itself during puberty and menopause. The symptoms of hirsutism often get worse gradually with age if not treated properly. Some medicines can cause hirsutism. These medicines include birth control pills, hormones and anabolic steroids. Hirsutism also seems to run in families. If you have hirsutism, your family doctor may want to do some tests to find out what is causing it. Your doctor may prescribe a medicine called an anti-androgen to help control the male hormones that cause hirsutism. Anti-androgens usually take at least 3 to 6 months to work. They can decrease the amount of new hair growth, but they are less likely to change the amount of hair you already have. There is also a medicine made specifically to slow down the growth of facial hair. It is a prescription cream that you apply to the affected skin on your face and chin. This medicine may start to work as soon as 4 to 8 weeks after you begin treatment.--

everyone, male and female has hair there, it's just more noticeable on some, everyone grows armpit and pubic hair (which is really what it is, a baby has no hair there at all)
shaving, waxing are the only ways I know of to get rid of it, could also bleach so it's not so noticeable

A lot of women do. The best way to get rid of it is by getting a brazilian wax at your local spa.

Some women have more than others. As for removing it, if not a lot, you could tweeze it, or use dipilatory for a lot. I guess some could even wax. Your preference.
