Violence against transgendered individuals is unfortunately fairly common. According to the US Transgender Survey (2015) about 9% of transgendered individuals reported being physically assaulted based on their transgender identity over the past year, and 13% of transgendered individuals reporting assault for any reason over the past year. This compares to about 1.5% of individuals in the general population being assaulted that same year, which indicates that transgendered individuals are over 8.5x more likely to be victims of assault, and the majority of that difference is because of transphobic violence.
