The majority of its followers are of Hungarian ethnicity and Hungarian is the main church language. The large majority of the Church's parishes are in Transylvania; according to the 2021 census, 495,380 people or 2.6% of the total population belong to the Reformed Church.^[1] About 95% of the members were of Hungarian ethnicity.^[2][3]
