Estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau show the number of older adults in the U.S. continues to climb, while the population of younger residents declines. From 2020 to 2024, Americans age 65 and over rose by 13%, while those under age 18 declined by 1.7%. The older population has grown sharply in the last century, rising from 4.9 million in 1920 to more than 61 million by 2024.
A 2021 study found that nearly half of Americans in this age group—about 28 million people—could need long-term services and supports. The report also estimates that more than one-third might eventually require care in a nursing home.
“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.”
