Recently, with the development of sensitive maser receiver and wide-band spectrometer, maser emission were detected toward more and more galaxies. 69 galaxies beyond the Magellanic Clouds has been reported with H2O maser emission (to 2006.12). The statistical properties of the sample of extragalactic H2O masers are not well explored. Here we collect observation data of all these detected extragalactic H2O maser sources and give a statistical analysis to investigate the statistical properties of the sample.
