Can anyone tell me how many churches are in the United States? Not any specific denomination - all of them are fine. I don't need exact numbers - but I would like it to be in the ball park.

I work on and restore churches and have heard that there are over 100,000 in the country. I am not certain of that but I have done a mailing for within 120 mile radius from my city (suburb of Chicago) and there are about 7,500

Way too many! Sorry I couldn't resist. I don't feel that a person needs to worship in a building when the creator is all around us.
