Is all of Haiti destroyed or is it mainly Port-au-Prince?

No there are areas that were not affected, more rural areas and the coast lines. Port-au-Prince from what I understand has filled up over the years due to extreme poverty in the rural areas. Somewhere I read that it was to be a city of 200,000 that grew to over two million. No wonder there is such devastation.
