U.S. Census Bureau estimates indicate that the older adult population continues to rise, while younger age groups are shrinking. From 2020 to 2024, the 65-and-older demographic rose by 13%, but the population under 18 dropped by 1.7%. Over the last century, the United States’ older adult population has surged from 4.9 million in 1920 to more than 61 million by 2024.

According to a 2021 study, close to half of this age group—about 28 million Americans—are likely to require long-term services and supports. The study also estimates that over one-third may ultimately need 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 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.”
