How Many Snorers Are
Out There?

If you suffer from snoring – either from the condition itself or from listening to someone else snore – you have plenty of company.

Pinning down a precise number of snorers is difficult. No one seems to know for sure what percentage of the population snores. But without question the problem is widespread and common.

Several journals, including the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine and Chest, estimate that 25 to 50 percent of men snore and 25 to 30 percent of women snore.
