Non-denominationalists are only a relatively small portion of Christians... There are 250 million self-identified Christians in America, 140 million adherents of a given denomination, and about 5 million non-denominationalists.

(However, there certainly are large numbers of ecumenically-oriented churches that do formally claim a specific denomination.)
