U.S. Census Bureau estimates show that the number of older adults nationwide is climbing while the population of younger groups falls. From 2020 to 2024, Americans 65 and older rose by 13%, while those under 18 dropped by 1.7%. Over the past 100 years, the older adult population has grown substantially, moving from 4.9 million in 1920 to more than 61 million in 2024.
A study conducted in 2021 predicts that almost half of these older Americans—about 28 million people—could need long-term services and supports. The findings also estimate that over one-third may 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. “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.”
