In 2023, about 17.7 percent of the American population was 65 years old or over; an increase from the last few years and a figure which is expected to reach 22.8 percent by 2050. This is a significant increase from 1950, when only eight percent of the population was 65 or over. A rapidly aging population In recent years, the aging population of the United States has come into focus as a cause for concern, as the nature of work and retirement is expected to change to keep up. If a population is expected to live longer than the generations before, the economy will have to change as well to fulfill the needs of the citizens. In addition, the birth rate in the U.S. has been falling over the last 20 years, meaning that there are not as many young people to replace the individuals leaving the workforce. The future population It’s not only the American population that is aging -- the global population is, too. By 2025, the median age of the global workforce is expected to be 39.6 years, up from 33.8 years in 1990. Additionally, it is projected that there will be over three million people worldwide aged 100 years and over by 2050.

The number of Americans aged 65 and over with Alzheimer's disease is projected to more than double by 2060, reaching 13.8 million. This significant increase highlights the growing challenge of caring for an aging population, particularly those affected by dementia. As the prevalence of Alzheimer's rises, it will have far-reaching impacts on healthcare, families, and society as a whole. Aging population trends The surge in Alzheimer's cases is closely tied to broader demographic shifts in the United States. By 2050, it's estimated that 22 percent of the American population will be 65 years or older, up from 17.3 percent in 2022. This rapid aging of the population is expected to strain healthcare systems and change the nature of work and retirement. Challenges of aging in place As the number of older adults with Alzheimer's increases, there is a growing desire among seniors to age in their own homes. A 2024 survey found that three-quarters of adults aged 50 and older strongly or somewhat agreed they would like to remain in their current residence for as long as possible. This preference is even stronger among those 65 and older, with 80 percent expressing this desire. However, the ability to age in place may be compromised by declining physical capabilities, as only about one in five adults aged 72 and older reported being fully able to perform self-care and mobility activities in 2021.

People in different subgroups age at different rates. Surveys containing biomarkers can be used to assess these subgroup differences. We illustrate this using hand-grip strength to produce an easily interpretable, physical-based measure that allows us to compare characteristic-based ages across educational subgroups in the United States. Hand-grip strength has been shown to be a good predictor of future mortality and morbidity, and therefore a useful indicator of population aging. Data from the Health and Retirement Survey (HRS) were used. Two education subgroups were distinguished, those with less than a high school diploma and those with more education. Regressions on hand-grip strength were run for each sex and race using age and education, their interactions and other covariates as independent variables. Ages of identical mean hand-grip strength across education groups were compared for people in the age range 60 to 80. The hand-grip strength of 65 year old white males with less education was the equivalent to that of 69.6 (68.2, 70.9) year old white men with more education, indicating that the more educated men had aged more slowly. This is a constant characteristic age, as defined in the Sanderson and Scherbov article “The characteristics approach to the measurement of population aging” published 2013 in Population and Development Review. Sixty-five year old white females with less education had the same average hand-grip strength as 69.4 (68.2, 70.7) year old white women with more education. African-American women at ages 60 and 65 with more education also aged more slowly than their less educated counterparts. African American men with more education aged at about the same rate as those with less education. This paper expands the toolkit of those interested in population aging by showing how survey data can be used to measure the differential extent of aging across subpopulations.

In 2022, among people aged 65 years and above who had health coverage, **** percent non-Hispanic White Americans had private health insurance, while a further ** percent had Medicare Advantage. The majority of older adults in the U.S. were privately insured (with or without Medicare). This statistic illustrates the distribution of health insurance coverage among adults aged 65 and above in the U.S. in 2022, by race and coverage type.

Retirement Communities Market Outlook

The global retirement communities market size was valued at approximately USD 250 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach around USD 400 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of about 5%. This growth is primarily driven by the aging global population, an increase in life expectancy, and changing lifestyle preferences among seniors. The shift towards comprehensive care and the integration of health and wellness services within retirement communities have further fueled this market's expansion. As societies worldwide continue to experience demographic shifts, the demand for retirement communities that offer a blend of healthcare, hospitality, and recreational amenities is expected to surge, underpinning the robust growth trajectory of the sector.

The burgeoning aging population is one of the primary growth factors for the retirement communities market. As advances in healthcare continue to improve life expectancy, a significant proportion of the global population is projected to fall within the senior age bracket, necessitating adequate living solutions for them. This demographic shift is particularly pronounced in developed regions such as North America and Europe, where a considerable percentage of the population is transitioning into retirement age. Additionally, emerging economies in Asia Pacific are also witnessing an increase in the elderly population, driven by improved healthcare infrastructure and living standards. This demographic evolution necessitates the development of retirement communities equipped with facilities that cater to both the healthcare and lifestyle needs of seniors.

Another significant growth factor is the increased financial independence and spending power among seniors. With many from the baby boomer generation having accrued substantial savings and investments, there is a growing willingness to spend on quality living environments that provide comfort, security, and access to healthcare and recreational activities. This financial capability, coupled with the desire for a community living environment that offers social interaction and reduces isolation, is a key driver for the retirement communities market. Furthermore, these communities are increasingly incorporating technology to enhance the quality of life for residents, with features such as telemedicine, smart home technologies, and digital health monitoring, which are appealing to the tech-savvy senior demographic.

Moreover, the changing societal norms and lifestyle preferences among the elderly are also contributing to the market's growth. TodayÂ’s seniors are more active and health-conscious than ever before, seeking retirement communities that offer wellness programs, fitness centers, and social activities that align with their lifestyle choices. The emphasis on holistic well-being has led to a rise in integrated community models that provide a continuum of care, from independent living to assisted living and nursing care, allowing seniors to age in place with dignity and peace of mind. This trend is expected to intensify in the coming years, further propelling the growth of the retirement communities market globally.

In recent years, the concept of Smart Communities has emerged as a transformative force within the retirement sector. These communities leverage advanced technologies to create interconnected environments that enhance the quality of life for residents. By integrating smart home devices, IoT solutions, and data-driven services, Smart Communities offer personalized and efficient living experiences. This technological integration not only improves safety and convenience for seniors but also promotes sustainable living practices. As the demand for tech-savvy solutions grows, retirement communities are increasingly adopting smart technologies to meet the evolving expectations of their residents, positioning themselves at the forefront of innovation in senior living.

Regionally, North America currently holds the largest share of the retirement communities market, driven by a well-established infrastructure, high disposable incomes, and a significant aging population. Europe follows closely, benefiting from similar demographic trends and a strong emphasis on social welfare programs for the elderly. Meanwhile, the Asia Pacific region is anticipated to exhibit the highest growth rate over the forecast period, fueled by rapid urbanization, economic growth, and increasing healthcare investments. Countries such as China, Japan, and India are at the forefront of this expansion, as they adapt to th
