About 200,000 Jews survived the Holocaust.

________

There's a problem: there is no agreed definition of Holocaust Survivor. I believe that the question should be broken down and restated as: How many Jewish Holocaust Concentration Camp Survivors were there in 1945?

How many Jews survived the Holocaust Years, living in European Countries under direct Nazi German control as of 1945?
There isn't an official number for the survivors from the Holocaust, however, we know that its not as many as we would like.
The Holocaust ended in 1945.It is now 2012, so any Holocaust Survivor must be 67+ years old. Normally, young children did not survive in the Concentration camps, and even if they were lucky enough to do so, few would be able to testify to their memories, if they were younger than eight. So any survivors with clear memories of their experience in the concentration camps, should be 75 or older.

The Majority of Holocaust Survivors now live in Israel according to a news story by Associated Press written in January, 2010. The story also said that the majority of Israel's Holocaust survivors suffer from depression. According to a study reported in the article,two thirds of Israel's 220,000 survivors experience some form of distress.There are maybe at most another 40,000 Holocaust survivors in the rest of the world.Now 2 years later, it would probably be less than a quarter of a million due to attrition.
