Do people still say 'chav'?

Someone called me a 'chav' yesterday and I realised it had been years since I last heard the word. Got me thinking. - Do people still say it? - If not, how do people describe social groups nowadays? - It feels like a classist term, but I think maybe any way to describe a social group ends up being possibly offensive. What other words do people use to describe groups? In my head, I've always just had posh people, chavs and 'normal'? Am I missing something, or do people just not care?
