The U.S. Census Bureau estimates that growth among the nation’s older adults continues while the number of young people declines. Between 2020 and 2024, the number of Americans 65 or older grew by 13% and the population under 18 dropped by 1.7%. Over the last century, the country’s older adult population has expanded substantially, rising from 4.9 million in 1920 to over 61 million by 2024.

A 2021 report indicates that nearly half of Americans in this age category, or approximately 28 million people, may need long-term care or support. It also projects that over one-third might eventually require care in a nursing facility.

“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.”
