* Constantly Changing: The number of stores fluctuates as Disney refreshes and updates its offerings. Some stores close, new ones open, and existing ones may get remodeled or change focus.
* Different Definitions: "Store" can be interpreted in various ways. Do we count kiosks, carts, and food stalls? What about gift shops within restaurants or hotels?
* No Centralized Database: Disney doesn't release a comprehensive list of every single store within the resort.
Instead of a specific number, it's better to think of it as hundreds upon hundreds of shops across four theme parks, two water parks, Disney Springs, hotels, and other areas.
