"By 2035, elderly will outnumber kids in US for the first time"
theblaze.com
Projections by the US Census Bureau show that by 2035, older adults will outnumber children for the first time in American history.
In fact, by 2035, the bureau expects there will be 2 million more elderly in the US than kids. The stats are largely attributed to lower birth rates, immigration rates, and aging of the baby boomer generation.
The Census Bureau reports that the numbers will make an impact on policy, saying “the country could see greater demands for health care, in-home caregiving and assisted living facilities. It could also affect Social Security. We project three-and-a-half working-age adults for every older person eligible for Social Security by 2020. By 2060, that number is expected to fall to two-and-a-half working-age adults for every older person.”
Because of its immigration rates, America’s population is still expected to grow.
