Surge.

I usually take about 13000-14000 steps on a normal working day as I have a desk job. But that can increase up to 25,000 steps on a weekend especially if I am camping. I use a fitbit one to track my steps.

I walk every day and run 30+ miles a week, usually over 5 days. My average is 19,000 steps. On days I don't run, about 11,000. I have a Garmin F15.0

Averaged 11521 per day over the last month. Using a Mi Band 2.0

I hoped to walk at least 5000 steps a day and thought maybe I was up around 8000 steps.
So I joined a step challenge, which just ended last week, and discovered that I walk at least 10,000 steps a day without trying too hard. I pushed it a bit during the challenge and ended up averaging just over 15,000 steps a day.
I use a pedometer.0 -
Wow...you guys are amazing! I have a desk job and a full, bountiful life and I average 11,000 steps a day using a Fitbit Alta which I love.1

I average 26,000 to 28,000 steps per day, tracking with a Fitbit One which I love. My goal is to walk more than 20,000 steps on weekdays with three days over 25,000 plus a minimum of 16,000 daily on weekends. I usually find myself over that, plans permitting3

I have a fitbit surge. Currently only about 7k per day without exercise. I try run 3 times a week which is about 5k steps per run.0

Over the last 7 days I have gotten between 2,625 and 16,392 steps. Typically about 12,000 on days I take a walk and 3,000 on days I don't. I use a Garmin Vivoactive.0

Wow, everyone is inspiring me to get moving - amazing!1

My days before run mileage (Doing Hal Higdon Intermediate II Marathon program atm and I usually take the fitbit off for that because it makes me crazy flying around) generally look like this because my children are crazy and we walk everywhere. 70k though- holy balls

15-25K per day. Average 19K. I aim for over 15K/day on the weekend and over 20K/day during the week. (My parking spot at work is 1.5 km from my office. The room in which I teach is 1km from my office. So, I have a 5km "head start" during the week.)
I have a FitBit Charge 2.
I suspect you will find a sampling bias for people who walk more than average in a thread like this.5 -

My house where most of this madness with three children is contained is somehow quite devoid of hills lol . The only times I go much over 12 flights of stairs is when I run a particular leg of the town trail system that has a brutal incline. Apparently our small town is flat as a pancake6 -
Meh. 5-8K.
I keep my walking strictly for pleasure. For logging, calorie gathering, and for health, I work out at home 5-7 days/week.4 -
When I can do cardio (treadmill) I average 11,000 a day (includes my workout plus regular walking during the day). When I can't do cardio (which is right now - injured) I average 7000-7500 per day. I use a Misfit Shine to track.1

I get 10-11k most days, and use a Garmin vivofit to track. It definitely makes me think more about how much I'm moving (or not), and encourages me to walk farther/more often than I used to, even though I'm still not formally excersizing.2
