Just looked it up. Interesting, in 2017 had 46.95 million campers (people) in just the USA alone and 1/1/2018 listed over 120 different active RV manufacturer's in the USA with most having many various RV's model lines, sizes, types (like towables or motorized or carried, etc). One site mentioned that there are more than 1800 various models/floorplans etc in 2016 being manufactured in the USA. Whew! Still can't keep up with the demand for RV's here in the USA.
Of course, there's over 330 million legal people living in the USA now and another over 37 million up in Canada and the 2 countries intermingle freely. Can't find all the same detailed RV'er, camper, manufacturer's info for Canada but it's substantial also.
The number of established and designated and defined campground spaces in the 50 U.S. states is constantly a changing number. Best info I could find is in 2016 it referenced 3,100,000+ sites in the USA (RV private parks, state parks, national parks, club, fairgrounds, military, and local governmental control, etc) not including the legal open land dispersed camping such as BLM, open dispersed national forests or state forests, etc. Guess there's no idea how you'd put a number on how many individual campsites there could or would be as they are not normally designated or marked site spaces, just a general vast area.
