How many outliers can a data set have?

There is no agreed definition of an outlier and consequently, there is no simple answer to the question. The number of outliers will depend on the criterion used to identify them. If you have observations from a normal distribution, you should expect around 1 in 22 observations to be more than 2 standard deviations from the mean, and about 1 in 370 more than 3 sd away. You will have more outliers if the distribution is non-normal - particularly if it is skewed.
