U.S. Census Bureau estimates indicate that the population of older adults in the United States continues to rise as younger age groups decline. The period from 2020 to 2024 saw a 13% increase in residents age 65 and older and a 1.7% decrease for those under 18. The nation’s older adult population has expanded substantially in the past 100 years, from 4.9 million in 1920 to more than 61 million in 2024.
A 2021 analysis found that nearly half of this age group—close to 28 million people—are expected to require long-term services and supports. The report also estimates that more than one-third could ultimately need nursing home care.
“Living a long life is something that many of us want and could get,” Jesse Slome, executive director of the American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance, said. “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.”
