The drive-in web site lists 500 active theaters and 3,000 dead ones.
The don't, however, list how many screens each theater has.

PBS had a documentary on the closing of many drive-in theaters across the country several years ago. Perhaps, there were 200 left in 2000. One hundred does seem like a low figure. One of the reasons for the closure is the universality of air conditioning and the fact that drive-ins cannot turn a profit with operations only when outside temperatures are ideal.
