Estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau highlight the ongoing increase in the older adult population nationwide, even as younger demographics decline. Between 2020 and 2024, Americans aged 65 and up grew by 13%, while the population under 18 fell by 1.7%. The older population in the United States has surged over the last century, moving from 4.9 million in 1920 to over 61 million in 2024.
A 2021 analysis found that almost half of these older adults—about 28 million people—could require long-term services and supports, with over one-third projected to need 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.”
