Trans Survey is being launched in February 2022 and the results are expected by the end of 2022. You can find more statistics from the U.S. Trans Survey, 40% of transgender respondents reported attempting suicide, compared to 4.6% of the population as a whole. All of these realities result in transgender people, especially trans women and trans people of color, experiencing extremely high levels of minority stress that results in poor mental and physical health. The American Medical Association has stated that transgender people face an "epidemic of violence." Transgender people face barriers in accessing healthcare, including anti-trans bias and laws allowing providers to deny care to trans patients. Ninety percent of trans people report experiencing harassment, mistreatment, or discrimination on the job. Transgender people are also four times more likely to live in poverty. Trans Survey, the largest national survey of transgender people to date, the trans community experiences unemployment at twice the rate of the general population, with rates for trans people of color up to four times the national unemployment rate. Transgender people face high levels of violence, discrimination, and poverty. Therefore it is critical that media create stories about transgender people that are fair, accurate, and current. But when a stereotypical or defamatory image of a transgender person appears in the media, the vast majority of viewers have no real-life comparison and may assume it is accurate. If a stereotypical or defamatory image of a gay or lesbian person appears in the media, viewers can compare it to real people they know. But according to a 2021 Gallup poll, only 31% of Americans say they have friends or relatives or coworkers who have told them personally that they are transgender, compared to a 2013 Pew poll showing that 87% of Americans say they personally know someone who is gay or lesbian. However, if that number is accurate, and all transgender people in the US lived together in one place, that city would be America's eighth largest city. Certain surveys suggest that the Williams Institute estimate is far too low. UCLA's Williams Institute estimates there are 1.4 million transgender people in the United States. It is difficult to estimate the number of transgender people in the United States, as most surveys are not constructed in a way that can accurately capture that information.
