U.S. Census Bureau data show the national population of older adults continues to rise while the number of children declines. From 2020 to 2024, the segment of Americans 65 and older increased by 13%, while those under 18 decreased by 1.7%. The country’s older adult population grew substantially over the last century, expanding from 4.9 million in 1920 to over 61 million by 2024.

Findings from a 2021 study indicate that almost half of Americans in this age group—about 28 million people—may ultimately need long-term services and supports. The analysis also suggests that more than a third could require care at a nursing home.

“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.”
