U.S. Census Bureau estimates indicate the country’s older adult population is rising as the number of children decreases. Americans age 65 and up grew by 13% from 2020 to 2024, while those under 18 declined by 1.7%. Over the past century, the nation’s senior population has surged from 4.9 million in 1920 to more than 61 million in 2024.
A 2021 study found nearly 50% of Americans in this age range—about 28 million—are likely to need long-term services and support, with more than a third 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.”
