Estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau indicate that older adults make up a growing share of the national population, while the number of younger Americans declines. Between 2020 and 2024, the U.S. population age 65 and older climbed by 13%, while those under 18 fell 1.7%. The country’s older adult population has experienced substantial growth in the past 100 years, rising from 4.9 million in 1920 to more than 61 million in 2024.
A 2021 report found that nearly half of adults in this group, about 28 million people, are likely to need long-term services and support. Additionally, the report estimates that over one-third will eventually require 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.”
