Senior Living Demographics &
Senior Living REIT Demographics

Many of us are getting older. Some 10,000 baby boomers are turning 65 every day. By 2030, all baby boomers will be older than 65, so that 1 in every 5 U.S. residents will be of retirement age. By 2034, older people will outnumber children for the first time in U.S. history, according to U.S. Census data.3

As boomers age, they will want or need to move into housing that fits their needs. Often, these options fall under the umbrella of senior housing, which range from senior-oriented facilities providing independent living options to different forms of assisted care.

The need for all types of senior-living facilities will grow. A 2015 study by NAREIT economists yielded the following:

​

• Seniors are moving into senior housing with more frequency than in the past, and those moves are occurring at younger ages than in the past. Part of this is driven by the availability of senior-living options beyond assisted-living care.

• While senior living is more common with older retirees, the most rapid growth is among those in the 70-to-79 age group.

• Wealthier seniors have greater options in terms of senior living.4

​

These and other demographic trends are favorable to senior housing REITs. The question remains: Are these a good investment? Like most investing options, the answer is that it depends.
