...and more talk about non-denoms. They are everywhere.

I am going to lean heavily on the work of the great team at the Hartford Institute for Religion Research - they are the real clearing house for this kind of data and collecting and organizing it is yeoman’s work. They house all their information about megachurches at this website - where they define a megachurch as, “2000 or more persons in attendance at weekly worship, counting adults and children at all locations.” So you can quibble with them all you want. It’s a completely arbitrary number but I think that we can all agree - two thousand people is a whole lot of folks gathering on a weekend.

They currently estimate there are about 1800 megachurches in the United States. Just to give a sense of scale for this, there are approximately 360,000 houses of worship in the United States - so a very large church is certainly not the norm in this part of the world.
