In a global survey conducted in 2023, ***** percent of respondents from 30 countries identified themselves as transgender, non-binary/non-conforming/gender-fluid, or in another way. In Switzerland, around *** percent of the respondents stated to identify themselves with one of the listed genders.

Most transgender people realize that the gender they were assigned at birth did not match their own gender identity in their childhood and adolescence in all European countries. On average, 73 percent realized before the age of 18, with this being highest in Luxembourg, at 90 percent, and lowest in Hungary, at 62 percent.

Stats NZ introduced questions on sexual identity and gender to HES for the year ended June 2021, to help provide a more accurate and inclusive picture of New Zealanders that, amongst other dimensions, would reflect the diversity of genders and sexual identities in Aotearoa.

As of April 2024, 55 percent of the LGBT population lived in the 50 states and the District of Columbia where private health insurance service providers weren't allowed to deny coverage for transgender-related health care services, such as sex reassignment surgery. However, only 40 percent lived in states where health insurance protections included sexual orientation and gender identity.

LGBT Americans The share of Americans self-identifying as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender has grown in recent years. This suggests that insurance protections which cover LGBT-related health care services will also continue to grow in importance. The prevalence of younger Americans self-identifying as LGBT when compared with older generations confirms this. Millennials and Gen Xers are much more likely to personally identify as LGBT than previous generations were. Growing acceptance and tolerance in wider society means that more people are willing to be open about their gender identity and sexual orientation. For instance, support for same-sex marriage in the U.S. underwent a huge shift over the past two decades with the majority of Americans being in favor of it since 2011.

According to survey conducted in eight countries, Spain is the country where people are more likely to identify themselves part of the LGBTQ+ community. It is also the country in which respondents stated more often to have a close friend or relative who is part of the LGBTQ+ community (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, non-binary, among others). Sweden, Germany, Italy, and Denmark, on the other hand, record the highest share of respondents who were neither part of the LGBTQ community nor knew anyone who is part of it.

This data set contains EIIHA populations who received services funded by Ryan White Part A Grant. EIIHA is Early Identification of Individuals with HIV/AIDS (EIIHA) The special populations (EIIHA) with HIV are: Black MSM = Black men and Black transgender women who have sex with men. Latinx MSM = Latinx men and Latinx Transgender women who have sex with men. Black Women - Black women Transgender - Transgender men and women. These populations have the biggest disparities of people living with HIV. Other data is the number of clients and units used in each service category in the Ryan White Part A, a grant that provides services for those with HIV.

In 2023, around ************** of the population surveyed in Thailand agreed with the statement that transgender teenagers should be allowed to receive gender-affirming care (e.g., counseling and hormone replacement treatment) with parental consent, the highest share across ** countries surveyed.

Worldwide, Brazil reported the highest number of transgender people murdered in 2023, reaching 100 victims. Most of the murders that year were reported in Latin America and the Caribbean. It is assumed that only a minority of the cases actually are reported, and the actual number is estimated to be significantly higher.

ABSTRACT Objective: To analyze the structure and contents of transgender women’s social representations of their bodies and body modification practices. Methods: Research conducted with 92 women using the Snowball technique. The data were collected using the free evocation of words technique and processed by the Evoc software, which organized the central and peripheral elements. Results: The representation of the real body includes two structuring aspects: one related to the need to adapt/modify the body conformation according to the self-reported gender, because of the dissatisfaction with the body itself; the second reveals the happiness/satisfaction considering the results obtained through the body modification/adaptation practices adopted in the transition. Final considerations: The body is constituted as a complex object and was represented by elements that reinforce the understanding of body modifications as needs, with a view to satisfaction, personal fulfillment, and care of one’s own body.

Selected socioeconomic characteristics of the transgender or non-binary population aged 15 and older, by age group.

User notes: 10/9/25 - for the report year 2025, data for the following indicators were uploaded with changes relative to report year 2023: Crime Rate: As of January 1, 2021, the FBI replaced the Summary Reporting System (SRS) with the National Incident Based Reporting System (NIBRS), which expands how crimes were recorded and classified. This report uses California’s version of NIBRS, the California Incident Based Reporting System (CIBRS), obtained from the SANDAG Open Data Portal. Crime rates are not disaggregated by jurisdiction, as in the previous Equity Indicator Report. Internet access: The age group variable was incorporated to account for notable disparities in internet access by age. Police Stops and Searches: refined methods. Agency data was aggregated to San Diego County because data was available for all agencies; previously data was available for three agencies. Analysis of RIPA data was updated to exclude stops where the stop was made in response to a call for service, combine transgender women and transgender men into a transgender category, and limit to contraband found during search. Used term “discovery rate” instead of “hit rate.” Removed comparison to traffic collision data and instead compared to population estimates from the American Community Survey. Jail Incarceration: new data sources. The numerator data for the average daily population data in jail was obtained from the San Diego County Sheriff's Office. Population data to calculate the rates was obtained from the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG). The terms for conviction status were corrected to "locally sentenced" and "unsentenced" for sentencing status. For jail population data, East African was reclassified as Black and Middle Eastern as White to allow for calculation of rates using SANDAG population estimates.

8/1/25 - for the report year 2025, the following change were made: Business Ownership: the minority and nonminority labels were switched for the population estimates and some of the race/ethnicity data for nonemployer businesses were corrected. Homelessness: added asterisks to category name for unincorporated regions to allow for a footnote in the figure in the story page.

7/11/25 - for the report year 2025, the following changes were made: Beach Water Quality: the number of days with advisories was corrected for Imperial Beach municipal beach, San Diego Bay, and Ocean Beach.

5/22/25 - for the report year 2023, the following changes were made: Youth poverty/Poverty: IPUMS identified an error in the POVERTY variable for multi-year ACS samples. In July 2024, they released a revised version of all multi-year ACS samples to IPUMS USA, which included corrected POVERTY values. The corrected POVERTY values were downloaded, and the analysis was rerun for this indicator using the 2021 ACS 5-year Estimates. Youth Poverty: data source label corrected to be 2021 for all years. Employment, Homeownership, and Cost-Burdened Households - Notes were made consistent for rows where category = Race/Ethnicity.

5/9/25 - Excluding data for the crime section indicators, data were appended on May 9, 2025 and the report will be updated to reflect the new data in August 2025. The following changes in methods were made: For indicators based on American Community Survey (ACS) data, the foreign-born category name was changed to Nativity Status. Internet access: Group quarters is a category included in the survey sample, but it is not part of the universe for the analysis. For the 2025 Equity Report year, respondents in group quarters were excluded from the analysis, whereas for the 2023 Equity Report year, these respondents were included. Adverse childhood experiences - new data source.
