U.S. Census Bureau estimates show that the nation’s older adult population is growing, while younger demographics decline. From 2020 through 2024, Americans 65 and older increased by 13%, and the under-18 population decreased by 1.7%. The country’s older adult population has seen significant growth over the past century, rising from 4.9 million in 1920 to more than 61 million in 2024.
A 2021 analysis indicates that nearly half, about 28 million Americans in this age group, may need long-term care or supportive services. More than a third could ultimately require nursing home placement.
“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.”
