An estimated 9 million Americans -- or nearly 4 percent of the total population -- say they identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender, according to a new report released this week from the Williams Institute, a think-tank devoted to LGBT research at UCLA.
The fully urban District of Columbia has the highest percentage of adults who identify as transgender, with 14,550 people â around 2.77 percent of the federal district's population. Several states have 100,000 or more people who identify as transgender, according to the researchers: California, with 218,000; Florida, with 100,300; and Texas, with 125,350. The highest percentages of adults identifying as transgender per state were found in Hawaii, California, Georgia, and New Mexico â all with 0.8 percent â followed by Texas and Florida with 0.7 percent, according to the study.
