I was researching something else and found this. They expect only 1000 nuns left in the U.S. by 2042

Are there any Catholic nuns left?

In 1965, there were 180,000 Catholic sisters in the United States. But according to the Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate, fewer than 42,000 nuns are now in the U.S. – a 76 percent drop. At this current rate, analysts anticipate that fewer than one thousand nuns will be left in the country by 2042.Dec 6, 2023
