In the Magellanic Clouds about 60 confirmed supernova remnants (SNRs) or candidates are known. They have been detected by a combination of X-ray, optical and radio observations. Various statistical aspects of these SNRs will be considered including the implied supernova rate, the spatial distribution, the implications of the radio luminosity/diameter distribution for SNR evolution, and the relation to the extended non-thermal emission.
