American Maturity

Publication Abstract

Crispell, Diane, and William H. Frey. 1993. "American Maturity." American Demographics, March.

Americans aged 65 and older are a fast- growing and formidable market. Some older people move to be closer to their family, and some move to a better climate, but most stay put. The "young" elderly, aged 65 to 74, are a relatively affluent and healthy group. The "older" elderly, aged 75 and older, are more likely to be disabled. Elderly people with disabilities cluster in the fast-growing Southeast, while the Midwest has a slow-growing but healthy elderly population.
