Must the number of smooth structures be countable or continuum?

Let $M$ be a manifold. Must the number of non-diffeomorphic smooth structures on $M$ be either countable or continuum? Could it be something in between when the continuum hypothesis fails? Edit: By m …

Must a space that is locally injective image of $\mathbb{R}^n$ be a manifold?

Suppose $X\subseteq\mathbb{R}^m$ s.t. for any $x\in X$ and any open $U\subseteq\mathbb{R}^m$ that contains $x$, there exists a smaller open set $V\subseteq U$ also containing $x$, so that $V\cap X$ is …

Must a space that is locally injective image of $\mathbb{R}^n$ be a manifold?

I feel like this is true for $n=1$. Here is an outline. Suppose $X$ is Hausdorff and $\{U\subseteq X\mid U\text{ is open and there exists a continuous bijection }f:\mathbb{R}\rightarrow U\}$ form a ba …
