5000 words allow you to understand about 98% of most ordinary texts (Nation (1990) and Laufer (1997)). Such a vocabulary size also warrants accurate contextual guessing (Coady et al., 1993; Hirsh & Nation, 1992; Laufer, 1997).
The Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA) was created by Mark Davies, and it is the only large and "balanced" corpus of American English. COCA is probably the most widely-used corpus of English, and it is related to other corpora from English-Corpora.org, which offer unparalleled insight into variation in English.
The corpus contains more than one billion words of text (25+ million words each year 1990-2019) from eight genres: spoken, fiction, popular magazines, newspapers, academic texts, TV and movies subtitles, blogs, and other web pages.
