Abstract
We derive a sharp cusp count for finite volume complex hyperbolic surfaces which admit smooth toroidal compactifications. We use this result, and the techniques developed in Di Cerbo and Di Cerbo (see [5]), to study the geometry of cusped complex hyperbolic surfaces and their compactifications.
