U.S. Census Bureau estimates indicate that the older adult population nationwide continues to rise, while younger age cohorts decrease. From 2020 to 2024, those age 65 and older grew by 13%, and Americans under 18 dropped by 1.7%. Over the past century, the older segment of the population has surged, increasing from 4.9 million in 1920 to over 61 million as of 2024.
A 2021 study found that nearly half of Americans in this age group—approximately 28 million people—may need long-term services and support, with projections that one-third could require nursing home placement in the future.
“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 insurance education organization. “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.”
