The informal [[Gender Census]] survey, which asks respondents "How do you describe your gender?" (among other questions), has included a checkbox option for "agender" since its first year (2013).<ref>https://gendercensus.com/results/2013-worldwide/</ref> Of around 2,000 respondents in 2013, 22% selected the "agender" checkbox.<ref>https://www.gendercensus.com/results/2013-worldwide/</ref> In 2024, 11,254 respondents (23.1%) selected this checkbox.<ref>Gender Census 2024 Unprocessed Results.https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1EJXhTOLDdgsv8hQcBc9gStKV-BrInUdF8ZtuObp9x38/edit?gid=779426998#gid=779426998</ref> | The informal [[Gender Census]] survey, which asks respondents "How do you describe your gender?"

A 2019 study investigated the types of microaggressions that agender and gender non-conforming people experience in romantic relationships, drawing upon responses from 200 self-identified gender non-conforming people and 190 agender people.<ref>Pulice-Farrow, L., McNary, S.

Sexual and Relationship Therapy, 1–20.'' doi:10.1080/14681994.2018.1533245</ref> The survey gave respondents only four options (transmasculine, transfeminine, gender non-conforming, agender) and the demographic information included alongside quotes reveals that participants often described themselves with different words when give a chance (including [[genderqueer]], [[Nonbinary|non-binary]], and [[maverique]]), making it difficult to tell how many people who selected the agender category described themselves as agender outside the survey.
