2017 Meetings
The number of Americans aged 65 and older is expected to grow from 48 million to 79 million by 2035, the Senior Housing News report states. By 2035, one in five people in the country will be 65 or older. Along with the increase of older Americans, the number of people with dementia will rise by 2035, even if incidence continues to fall. If dementia rates continue to decline at the rate they have from 2000-2010, by 2035 the number of adults aged 65 and older with dementia may reach 6 million, with another 13.9 million having some form of cognitive impairment that does not meet the criteria for dementia, according to their report.One of the main reasons the U.S. will see a rise in people with dementia is due to the bulge of baby boomers reaching old age. But right now, dementia risk is declining.
