According to U.S. Census Bureau estimates, the older adult population in the United States is climbing as numbers in younger age groups drop. From 2020 to 2024, Americans age 65 and older grew by 13%, while those under 18 declined by 1.7%. Over the past century, the nation’s older adult population has expanded significantly, rising from 4.9 million in 1920 to more than 61 million by 2024.
A 2021 study found that roughly half of adults age 65 and older—about 28 million—may require long-term services and supports, with more than a third projected to need nursing home care eventually.
“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.”
