It's hard to generalize because it differs by age range and location, but figures for how many people identify as transgender tend to hover around 0.5% to 1%, so a bit more than you suggest.

I hope cis people are prepared to actually fight for trans people's rights, because in the current climate we need to show some solidarity and stand up for each other.
