It is pretty much impossible to count how many polygamists are in Utah because polygamy is illegal and most polygamists try to hide from the government. Their marriages are not legal and therefore not counted, and in the census all parties are considered single parents. It has been estimated that there are a few thousand polygamists in Utah, most of them living in small towns in central and southern Utah, but there are some living in the suburbs of Salt Lake City.

Are there anti Mormon polygamists?

Yes. Although most polygamists are not 'anti' Mormon, they are simply 'non' Mormon. The Polygamists who consider themselves part of the LDS/Mormonism movement do not agree with the teachings of the mainstream Mormon Church, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They generally don't fight or protest against the Church, but both sides do try to draw a line of distinction between their faiths, each believing the other to be apostate. Polygamy exists in other cultures and religions as well, such as Islam and Christianity. Most of these polygamists are also not 'anti' Mormon, they simply have their own beliefs.
