How many manholes are there in US?
Good question...have to use an estimate, because I am sure there isn't nationwide numbers on this. EPA estimates that there is 740,000 miles of public sewer lines in the US* and on average length between manholes on a city street is 300-400 feet. So multiply 740,000 x 5280 / 350 which equals.... 11,163,428 So roughly 11 million manholes in the united states.
