Let \(X:=[0,1]\) and let \(\mathcal{S} := \{S_1, \ldots, S_N\}\) be a collection of contractions on the compact metric space \((X, |\cdot|)\). Denote by \((\mathcal{K}(X), \mathcal{H})\) the hyperspace of all nonempty compact subsets of \(X\) endowed with the Hausdorff metric \(\mathcal{H}\). An \(A\in \mathcal{K}\) is called an attractor for the iterated function system \(\mathcal{S}\) if \[ A = \bigcup_{i=1}^N S_i(A). \] The authors establish the following results: {\parindent=6mm \begin{itemize}\item[(1)] A typical -- in the sense of Baire -- closed subset of \(X\) is not an attractor of an IFS. The closed sets that comprise the \(F_\sigma\) set of attractors is described. \item[(2)] The set of attractors and its complement are both dense subsets of \((\mathcal{K}(X), \mathcal{H})\). \item[(3)] The set of attractors is path-connected. \item[(4)] Every countable compact subset of \(X\) of finite Cantor-Bendixon rank is homeomorphic to an attractor. \item[(5)] Every nowhere dense uncountable compact subset of \(X\) is homeomorphic to an attractor. \end{itemize}}
