U.S. Census Bureau estimates indicate a continued rise in the nation’s older adult population, with numbers of children falling. From 2020 to 2024, Americans age 65 and older increased by 13%, while those under 18 decreased 1.7%. The older population in the U.S. has grown substantially since 1920—rising from 4.9 million to more than 61 million by 2024.
A 2021 analysis estimates that approximately half of older adults—about 28 million people—may need long-term services, with more than a third likely to require nursing home care eventually.
“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.”
