The usual estimate is something on the order of 400 million worldwide. However some caveats apply:
- Many people follow Buddhist precepts without formally being part of a Buddhist community
- Countries like China and North Korea prohibit religious expression and numbers of Buddhists are not known. If even 1% of the population were Buddhist the number would be increased substantially
- Some Buddhist sects such as Falun Dafa are not recognized as Buddhists by others
- Some countries like Japan attribute religious alliance to historic family ties not to the present individual's positions or belief.
