About one third of European Jews were still alive at the end of World War 2. Many of them, such as Jews in Britain and Sweden were never in any danger of being sent to extermination camps ... Many French , Belgian and Italian Jews were protected in various ways ... In the Soviet Union, Jews who managed to stay behind Soviet army lines were not in danger, either.
The number of Jews that survived extermination camps is numbered in hundreds (if that), but the number that survived labour camps is higher.
Certainly. There were tens of thousands that survived. I've personally met at least two of them. If there is a Holocaust museum in your area, there may be opportunities to listen to them tell their stories.
Yes, there were. There were many people who wrote books about their experiences in the concentration camps.

There were many survivors of the Holocaust. Holocaust Survivors dot org site offers many stories and photos from actual survivors one can read. The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum have an abundance of information on their website as well.
Yes. According to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum website, there are roughly about 195,000 Holocaust survivors as of this writing (February 2015). However, sadly, of course, these survivors are passing away quickly. All of them are quite elderly at this point. The very youngest survivors would be in their mid 70s now.
Yes they did, infact some of the survivors of the holocaust who died in the last 10 years were escapees.
Many of them. If you visit a local holocaust museum, you can find talks that are given by survivors. I've been privileged to attend a couple of these. They are very moving and hard to listen to.
It is very likely. You could ask a local synagogue tactfully.
