U.S. Census Bureau estimates continue to indicate a growing senior population alongside a shrinking younger demographic. From 2020 to 2024, Americans 65 and older increased by 13%, while those under 18 decreased by 1.7%. Over the last 100 years, the country’s population of older adults expanded greatly, going from 4.9 million in 1920 to more than 61 million by 2024.
According to a study from 2021, close to half of this age group—or about 28 million people—could need long-term services and support. The same study anticipates that more than a third of older Americans 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, an educational group focused on 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.”
