I never got to finish my island as I get super close then I dislike how it looks so I restart it.
One day I will finish it

None, my island is still in progress as some areas look flattened. Its a mess filled with patterns, items on the floor, trees and flowers all over the place. There are completed looking areas, but im not finished working on my island.

I am content with my island at the time being, but I wouldn't say it is completed yet...
I would prefer more organization for my flowers and to also create a type of zen garden with the stones I have on my island, but that is too much work for me to do at this time

It's a big fat zero for me as well LOL. I never even completed my town in New Leaf, which I had a decade to figure out and still haven't lol. Tbf it was mostly done, but I remember having some second thoughts on villagers and house placements before I stopped playing.
As for New Horizons... there's just way more to do since terraforming is a thing. The customization is so overwhelming to me. I appreciate the freedom, but because of how free we can be with everything, I find that I only ever go through a big terraforming/decorating phase once or twice a year. I've gotten small bursts of motivation and have played consecutively for a few months, but my interest always fizzles out and I usually take breaks that can last up to a few months. I've had the same island since June 2020 iirc (we don't talk about the island I had from March-May 2020 skfkgk), and while I've made some decent progress, it still feels far from done. It doesn't help that I get indecisive and like to completely change my terraforming lol. I think I'm mostly settled on what I've done, but my island's definitely gone through many terraforming changes. I honestly wish I had a timelapse of my progression from start until now lol.
But yeah with that said, I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if the next game came out and I still wasn't done my island lol.

If asked a couple years ago I would've said one, but now I'd say zero.
I considered my main island complete for a good few years, but a while back I got it in my head to do some rearranging and terraforming. I haven't gotten around to that yet, though. Eventually! Probably. Maybe?
I also have a second island that I want to create but have been held up by the fact that I'm terrible at naming things and haven't come up with one yet. So, since I haven't even started it, obviously nowhere near completion.

there is no such thing as a completed island/town/whatever with animal crossing for me

I feel like I can never truly "complete" an island. But! That is the beauty of Animal Crossing in general. I never felt like I had to "complete" my NL town either. Of course, starting over again in NH wasn't easy and it will take me a while to get most of the DIY recipes I used to have in my old island but...that's also relaxing to me. Its not something that I have to rush and do right away.

I haven’t finished any; I barely started my second island and when I do grt back to playing it, I’ll reset again since it has been too long since I touched it.
I’m honestly in no hurry to complete it and am just enjoying taking my time still.

I have answered maybe a little optimistically and said one 
I know that my island isn’t perfect or maybe complete to other peoples standards but I am happy with my little Bayside and honestly don’t think there is much left that I want to do (apart from finish the museum but the bugs will never be finished as I am scared of spiders 
)
I can’t imagine ever resetting as I have spent way too many hours on this

I’ve completed one island, then started over. Still not done with my second island and not sure I ever will be, because I leave an area unfinished for future tbt event builds

i've completed two islands (launch island + reset in late 2021). i reset for a third time around spring of this year since i thought i'd done all i wanted to do on my second island. also reset since i wanted to try and do a limited/no terraform island. i haven't made progress other than reaching the unlock of harv's island for an event from the fair.
there's a chance that i might hit up another acnh wave by the end of the year, but for now it'll just be for forum events !

Zero!
I've flattened my island several times, but have never actually gotten it to the "completed" stage. There’s always something I find I don't like, or want to change.
I think the answer will always be zero.

impatiently waiting for fall weather to arrive… 🍂
I have fully completed 1 island, and then lost my Switch early this year. I’ve been so devastated about it, that I haven’t been motivated to restart another island & doing it all over again. I had such wonderful memories with my first. 
Zero!! lolll, Ive had the same island I made right at launch, and the closest I probably actually came to completing it I think was my first island because I grinded to get to 5 stars by decorating a bunch of small areas but they were really rushed and honestly probably only filled like half of the islands actual space. Ive then completely flattened I think twice? and Ive gone through like 5 or 6 huge changes, I'm pretty happy with where I'm at now, idk when Ill actually get to finishing lol
