Many thousands of them, possibly millions, fall every day.
Iron meteorites, which are composed mainly of iron and nickel, are analogous in composition to Earth's core. They are thought to originate from the cores of differentiated asteroids that were disrupted by collisions and then fell to Earth as meteorites.
Meteorites were originally asteroids or fragments of other celestial bodies that were orbiting in space. When they collided with other objects or were influenced by gravitational forces, they were knocked out of their orbit and eventually fell to Earth's surface as meteorites.
Meteorites fall into two classes, stony and iron. There is a belt of meteoric material near Mars, from which many of our meteorites come. Perhaps the debris from a broken planet? The iron meteorites, in fact iron-nickel mixtures, are magnetic. the stony meteorites are not. Have a look for Bode's Law in a reference source.
No it is not true. Many, many meteorites reach the earth's surface.
Stony meteorites, iron meteorites, stony-iron meteorites.

Meteorites are meteors that fell to Earth. Therefore, all "meteorites" are on Earth someplace. Many of them are in museums, but some are available for purchase. And of course, there are still a great number of them laying all over the ground, if you could recognize them.

A total of 2,806 witnessed meteorite falls were recorded in 1997.
500 meteorites have missed the earth from crashing
There are four syllables in the word meteorites. Me-te-or-ites.
Mars. Some meteorites, known as Martian meteorites, have been identified as originating from Mars. These meteorites carry unique characteristics that link them to Mars, such as gas trapped within their mineral structures that matches the Martian atmosphere.
June 11th, 1997 fell on a Wednesday. The following year it fell on a Thursday.
'Til I Fell in Love with You was created in 1997.
Basically, it's just because there's more wilderness than there is cities and towns.
