U.S. Census Bureau estimates continue to show that America’s older population is expanding while the number of younger individuals declines. From 2020 to 2024, residents aged 65 and up rose by 13%, as the population under age 18 decreased by 1.7%. Over the past century, the number of older adults in the U.S. increased substantially, from 4.9 million in 1920 to more than 61 million by 2024.
A study published in 2021 reports that almost half of this demographic, or about 28 million people, may eventually require long-term services and support. The research also projects that more than a third of this group could need nursing home care at some stage.
“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.”
