How often are school-age only children invited to friends' houses?

I realise this could be. How long is a piece of string but ... How often does your Year 1 child get invited into other people's to play?
Just trying to work out if my daughter is on the low end as it were. She just seems to get invited to places really. She's been at school nearly 2 years and has been invited over to about five houses to play. Kids over about 20 times. Some repeat. Some only once.

Just wondering if it's because we expect too much, or people just don't want her around, she's never had a repeat invitation ever.

Makes me wonder if she's an awful guest 😞😞

Most parents work in our school. Not a lot of play after school.
Most children go to guides/scouts, sport, art, music and see their friends.

Some people are more inclined to have additional kids round than others
we had more round than they went because we had more outdoor space

plus I was around after school pick up
and had two at same school etc etc
