Nearly three million Americans—over 1% of the U.S. population—now identify as transgender, marking a dramatic surge in self-reported gender identities that has reshaped societal norms and sparked intense cultural debates.
According to new research from the Williams Institute, a staggering 76% of those identifying as transgender—totaling 2.8 million individuals—are under the age of 35, with a particularly concerning concentration among the youngest demographics. Twenty-five percent fall between the ages of 13 and 17, amounting to 724,000 teenagers navigating this identity amid growing scrutiny over influences like social media, education, and healthcare access.

The Williams Institute has produced reports on transgenderism in the US since 2022. In that year, it estimated the number to be 1.6 million, meaning the number has increased by around 75% in just three years.
Researchers based their findings on survey data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System and Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System, and created statistical models.
“Younger generations are more likely to identify as transgender, and we expect that trend to continue,” said lead author of the report, Jody Herman, in a statement.
“Youth and young adults are more likely to identify as transgender due to a variety of factors, including a greater willingness among younger individuals to disclose that they identify as transgender on surveys.”
