Estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau show the nation’s older adult population is rising, while younger age groups are declining. From 2020 to 2024, the number of Americans age 65 and older grew by 13%, while the population under 18 decreased by 1.7%. Over the past century, the country’s older adult population has increased substantially, from 4.9 million in 1920 to more than 61 million expected by 2024.
A 2021 analysis found that close to half of this group, approximately 28 million people, may need long-term services and support, with over a third possibly requiring nursing home care eventually.
“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. “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.”
