Over two-thirds of eligible Americans voted in the 2020 presidential election, according to survey data from the Census Bureau. Turnout reached its highest level in three decades.

By 2100, the United States will be home to 366 million people, according to Census Bureau projections. That’s 32 million more people than in 2022, but it also indicates a slight decline from a projected peak down the road. The Census Bureau projects America’s population to grow older and more diverse by the end of the 21st century, with ...
In 2018, the US Census Bureau projected that there would be 56.1 million Americans 65 and older in 2020; in 2021, there were 55.9 million Americans 65 and older.
