U.S. Census Bureau estimates indicate that the number of Americans age 65 and older is rising while younger groups are declining. Between 2020 and 2024, those 65 and older grew by 13%, while people under 18 declined by 1.7%. Over the past 100 years, the United States’ population of older adults surged from 4.9 million in 1920 to more than 61 million in 2024.
A 2021 study found that around half of Americans age 65 and older—about 28 million—will likely need long-term services and supports, and more than a third are projected to require nursing home care at some stage.
“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.”
