Data from the U.S. Census Bureau show the country’s older adult demographic continues to rise while the number of younger residents declines. From 2020 to 2024, the population of Americans age 65 and older grew by 13%, whereas the number under age 18 dropped 1.7%. The United States’ older adult segment has increased significantly in the past century, expanding from 4.9 million in 1920 to over 61 million by 2024.
Research published in 2021 estimates that about half of adults 65 and older—nearly 28 million people—will require some form of long-term services and support. The study also forecasts that more than one-third of this population may need nursing home care.
“Living a long life is something that many of us want and could get,” said Jesse Slome, executive director of the American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance, an insurance education organization. “But when we live a long life, the chances of us needing long-term care increase exponentially. But when you need that type of care, there are limited options.”
