A large-scale survey of "transgender, trans, genderqueer, and non-binary" people was conducted in 2015: the United States Trans Survey (USTS). In total there were 27,715 respondents, 35% of whom (9,769 people) "indicated that their gender identity was best described as nonbinary or genderqueer." However, a greater number (13,353 people or 48%) answered "Yes" to the question "Do you identify as [[multigender|more than one gender]] or as [[agender|no gender]]?"<ref name="2015USTS">{{Cite web |title=2015 U.S. Transgender Survey Complete Report |date= |access-date=23 October 2020 |url= https://transequality.org/sites/default/files/docs/usts/USTS-Full-Report-Dec17.pdf}}</ref>
