U.S. Census Bureau estimates show the older adult population is rising across the country as numbers decline among younger groups. Between 2020 and 2024, the population of Americans age 65 and older grew by 13%, while those under 18 decreased by 1.7%. The older adult population has seen significant growth in the last 100 years, climbing from 4.9 million in 1920 to over 61 million in 2024.
A 2021 study determined that nearly 50% of older adults, about 28 million people, could require long-term services and assistance. The analysis also forecasts that more than one-third may eventually depend on 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.”
