The diagram illustrates the changes of total US population aged 65 and over, from 1900 to 2000, expressed in percentage data and partitioned in three categories of age.
The most relevant range is related to people aged between 65 and 74, characterized for a stable growth from 1900 to 1960 and then, after a flat trend from 1960 to 1970, for a second period of rise until 1990. Meanwhile, in the early 90 years considered, trends of the remaining two classes grew steadily. In detail population aged 75-84 passed from 1.0 points to 4.0, almost quadrupling initial data, while people aged 85 or more raised significantly after 1960 reaching 1.2 percentage points in 1990.
Despite detailed and general trends were upwards until 1990, the last census of 2000 showed a considerable decrease of population aged 65-74, reduced at 6.5 points. The fall of this value, despite the growth of the remaining categories, brought the total percentage of people aged 65 or more at 12.4 points, slowing down the overall upwards trend.
