There are more white dwarfs. Only the most massive stars can form black holes. White dwarfs form from low to medium mass stars, which far outnumber the supermassive ones.

Are there any black holes in your galaxy?
Yes. There is a supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy and a number of stellar mass black holes through the rest of it.
What is the most common form of black holes in the universe?
Probably stellar mass black holes
Why have no white dwarfs cooled to form black dwarfs in the galaxy?
According to astronomers and authors Jonathan Weiner and Carl Sagan, white dwarfs - which have been an accepted entities by all astronomers for decades - require an amount of time to "cool down" that well exceeds the current age of the universe - hence there hasn't been enough time for any of them to cool down yet and become "black dwarfs".
Are there more white dwarfs of more black holes?
I think white dwarfs. This is because they are much more low mass than black holes. White dwarfs are much more common in the universe than black holes, because we have only discovered a few black holes whereas we are aware of many white dwarfs.
Are black dwarfs a solid liquid or a gas?
None of the above. White dwarfs and the black dwarfs they will become consist of a unique state of matter called electron degenerate matter.
What stellar remnants can form when stars die?
black holes white dwarfs or nuetron stars
Are there black holes in our galaxy?
Yes. Our galaxy has a supermassive black hole at its center and likely millions of stellar mass black holes scattered throughout.
Are there any black holes in your galaxy?
Yes. There is a supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy and a number of stellar mass black holes through the rest of it.
Are there any black hole in the sombrero Galaxy?
That is very likely. 1) Every larger galaxy, or most of them, have a supermassive black hole in their center. 2) Since a certain percentage of star eventually become a stellar black hole, any galaxy should have several stellar black holes,in addition to the supermassive black hole.
What is the most common form of black holes in the universe?
Probably stellar mass black holes
Is there any black hole in the galaxy Satan A?
I don't think there is a galaxy called "Satan A"; at least, not as a standard name, generally accepted by astronomers. On the other hand, most larger galaxies have a supermassive black hole at its center, and it can be expected that any galaxy has several stellar black holes.
Where are black holes generally found in a galaxy?
Most or all galaxies appear to have supermassive black holes at their centers and probably have stellar mass black holes scattered throughout.
What is the most known type of black hole?
The stellar black holes are the most common ones, as far as we know.
Are black holes very common?
Yes, Black Holes are very common in our galaxy and general.

Is this galaxy near a black hole?
Our galaxy contains a supermassive black hole at the center and probably several million stellar mass black holes scattered throughout.
Does a galaxy contain black holes?
Not really "a" black hole - many black holes. It is currently believed that all, or most, galaxies have a huge black hole at its center. Any galaxy should also have lots of smaller black holes - so-called "stellar" black holes, because they have approximately the mass of a star (larger stars can become black holes).
