U.S. Census Bureau estimates show the older adult population in the nation is rising while numbers of younger residents decline. Between 2020 and 2024, Americans age 65 and older grew by 13%. In contrast, those under age 18 dropped by 1.7%. Over the last century, the older adult population expanded from 4.9 million in 1920 to over 61 million by 2024.
A 2021 analysis projects that approximately 28 million adults age 65 or older—almost half of the age group—may eventually use long-term care services and support, with more than a third likely to need 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.”
