U.S. Census Bureau estimates indicate the country’s older adult population is rising while younger segments decline. Between 2020 and 2024, Americans age 65 and over increased by 13%, and those under 18 decreased by 1.7%. Older adults now make up a much larger share of the U.S. population compared to a century ago, growing from 4.9 million in 1920 to more than 61 million in 2024.
A 2021 study estimates that about half of adults in this group—roughly 28 million people—may need long-term services and supports, with more than one-third anticipated to 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.”
