U.S. Census Bureau estimates note continued growth in the older adult population nationwide as the number of younger individuals decreases. From 2020 to 2024, Americans age 65 and older rose by 13%, while people under 18 declined by 1.7%. Over the past 100 years, the population of older adults increased sharply—from 4.9 million in 1920 to over 61 million by 2024.
A 2021 analysis estimated that roughly 28 million people, nearly half of Americans over 65, might need long-term services and supports. More than a third of that age group could eventually require nursing home care, according to projections.
“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, which provides insurance education. “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.”
