-- There are two of them: 1.618034 and -0.618034 (both rounded).

-- Each also has the interesting property that it is one greater than its reciprocal.

-- These numbers are the limit of the ratio of consecutive terms of the Fibonacci series.

-- The bigger one is the so-called 'golden ratio'.

The only number that is one less than a square?

Every non-negative real number is a square (every number if in the complex field) so every real number greater than or equal to -1 is one less than a square. Even if you restrict yourself to perfect squares, of the form n2, then n2 - 1 = (n-1)*(n+1) is one less than a square. There are infinitely many such numbers.
