U.S. Census Bureau estimates show that older Americans now represent a growing portion of the population as younger cohorts decrease. The 65-and-older group grew by 13% from 2020 to 2024, while the number of Americans under age 18 declined by 1.7%. Over the past hundred years, the older population has risen sharply, from 4.9 million in 1920 to above 61 million in 2024.
According to a 2021 study, close to half of those aged 65 and older—almost 28 million—are likely to need long-term care and support. More than one-third may require nursing home care at some point.
“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 group. “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.”
