U.S. Census Bureau estimates show that the older adult demographic nationwide continues to expand as the number of children declines. From 2020 to 2024, the American population age 65 and older grew by 13%, while those under 18 dropped by 1.7%. Over the past 100 years, the U.S. senior population has risen dramatically from 4.9 million in 1920 to more than 61 million in 2024.
A 2021 analysis reports that approximately 28 million people in this age category, or nearly half of older adults, may need long-term services and support. More than a third of these individuals could eventually require care from a nursing facility.
“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.”
