Estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau show the country’s older adult population is increasing even as the number of younger Americans declines. Americans 65 and older grew by 13% between 2020 and 2024, while those under 18 fell by 1.7%. The total older population has risen steeply over the last 100 years, from 4.9 million in 1920 to more than 61 million by 2024.
A 2021 report finds that as many as half of this age group—about 28 million people—may need long-term services and supports, and more than a third could ultimately use nursing home care.
“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 group. “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.”
