The U.S. Census Bureau estimates that the nation’s older adult population keeps rising while numbers in younger age groups lessen. Between 2020 and 2024, the population of Americans age 65 and up increased 13%, while the under-18 group declined 1.7%. Over the last century, the older adult population has grown significantly, from 4.9 million in 1920 to over 61 million in 2024.
A 2021 analysis suggests about half of those age 65 and older—around 28 million people—will need long-term services or support, and more than a third may ultimately 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, a group focused on 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.”
