+The_Incredibles_ Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 (edited) The home page says there are over 5 million geocachers worldwide. I find it hard to believe these are all active cachers. I haven't even cached that much and according to www.cacherstats.com, I am # 34,838 in the world. I suspect many signed up and never even found 1 cache. I would be *very* curious to see how may of these 5 million are *active* cachers. For example, they post at least one log/year. Actually, I'd also be interested to see how many people log on at least once/month. Anybody know? Edited July 3, 2013 by The_Incredibles_ Quote

+MountainWoods Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Pricked my curiosity too. BTW, I know it was rather arbitrary, but I was think along similar lines: that "active" (for purposes of such a statistic) might be defined as folks who have found a cache within the last 12 months. Yes, there are probably thousands of definitions of Active. But for purposes of what you're talking about, a simple definition like "found a cache within the last 12 months" would suffice. At least for my curiousity. I didn't get you an answer. But I hope I helped in clarifying the qualifications for an answer. Now we just need a wizard that can get the information... Quote

I post a thread, go have a nap and wake up thinking there will be some actual numbers and this is what I get. Nice try. There is a post buried in the forum from some years back where Jeremy tells us how many out of the total have found more than a few caches. Those numbers give a clue as to the ratio of how many get their feet wet yet never take fully take the plunge. While it would not take into account how many were active and then quit forever, it might be interesting to go over those numbers again. Perhaps one of the forum search wizards can find it? Quote

Being involved in the organisation of a mega event, I can say that from our admittedly small sample of the geocaching population, I can tell you that number of people in a "team" under one caching name seems to average out at about 1.75 people per account. It doesn't mean they are all cachers, and also it might not be that all the cachers usually caching under each account are attending our event, but I can say that that average has been consistent throughout our registration process. Extreme extrapolation is prone to large margins of error, but you could certainly conclude that if you're happy with the order of magnitude of the number of accounts, 1.75x will give you a ballpark for the number of individuals.

+eigengott Posted July 5, 2013 Posted July 5, 2013 there would be no way of knowing the number of family members, and dogs. Not if you solely rely on the already existing data on geocaching.com.

+redsox_mark Posted July 5, 2013 Posted July 5, 2013 (edited) I say roughly 800,000 active accounts (and at least 776,726). That is based on a definition of active account = at least one log in 2013. Project GC has some data which helps. Looking at number of active accounts: In the United States: Active cachers from United States 2013 2012 Difference Last week 25221 40766 -15545 -38% Last month 99327 93861 5466 +6% Since 1st of January 241045 238653 2392 +1% Not so easy to read when I paste it; but it is saying that 241,045 caching accounts based in the US logged at least one cache since Jan 1. And around 100,000 in the past month. This data is based on where the cacher is from.. so it counts finds of a US cacher in another country, but not a foreign cacher in US. There is also a table for cachers in the US - this includes foreign cachers in the US but not US cachers abroad. The numbers aren't that much different. In the UK where I live - 54,442 accounts have logged a cache this year. So we are around 300,000 with just US and UK. Germany has just over 200,000. So that is half a million so far. Czech Republic has 42,218. Canada 35,546. I don't see a way to query all countries at once. But what I did is I queried on the countries with significant caching activity (based on my knowledge and some random checks). I don't think I've missed any big ones but I may have missed 1 or 2. Most of the countries not listed here will have < 1000; most < 100. Again, this is based on where the cacher's account says they are from. There are some countries with > 1000 cachers making finds in the country (e.g. Thailand), but most are foreign visitors (counted against their home country). US 241,045 Germany 200,657 UK 54,442 Czech Republic 42,218 Canada 35,546 Netherlands 26,068 Sweden 22,611 Portugal 17,786 Australia 17,028 France 16,353 Austria 15,493 Finland 13,747 Switzerland 11,903 Belgium 10,134 Spain 8,932 Norway 8,551 Denmark 8,535 Slovakia 4,679 New Zealand 4,659 Poland 2,710 South Africa 2,601 Italy 2,058 Ireland 1,817 Luxembourg 1,773 Japan 1,480 Hungary 1,373 Slovenia 877 Puerto Rico 375 Romania 335 Greece 327 Singapore 259 Iceland 181 Russia 102 Qatar 71 Total 776,726 Edited July 5, 2013 by redsox_mark Quote
+redsox_mark Posted July 5, 2013 Posted July 5, 2013 And using the US data which says the number of active for the last month is 41% of the number active for the year, you get around 320,000 active in the past month. So based on the monthly definition, Mrs Incredible was pretty accurate! Quote

Go Bake a cookie if you like, but Scrabblers back in post# 17 raised you to 300,001 and is that much closer to the number you agree is closer (320,000) Anyway I figure that other factors need to be counted in... other listing sites with attention to non multiple memberships, and those that hunt old school without any listings for starters, and those friends that tag along on many caching trips just for interest, but not as cachers per se, even though they often find them. As for GC math, well they probably use the same firm that counts the numbers of McC burgers served Doug 7rxc Quote

danilightning Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 http://project-gc.com/ this has active caher stats Quote
+The A-Team Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 http://project-gc.com/ this has active caher stats Yeah, redsox_mark posted a bunch of stats from that site earlier in this discussion. However, I'm going to have to log a DNF on finding those stats myself. I've just gone through all the menus half a dozen times, and I can't find anything remotely like "Active cachers". Where are you people seeing this? Quote

Where are you people seeing this? Click on "home" then select "overview". If you are logged in, it will come up with the stats for your country. (If you are not logged in, I think you get USA stats by default). You can then change the filter to be a different country. Note I assume the data for "last week" is actually a partial week of this week (likely starting on Monday), which is why data is so low. It is the active number of cachers since Jan 1 2013 which I was using. The data for "last month" seems reasonable, so I assume that really is last month (and not showing this partial month).

This must be one of those D1 puzzles that I stare at for ages because I'm overthinking it. Quote
