U.S. population is aging

If you've noticed that there are more grandparents around now than ever before, you've observed correctly. If you haven't noticed, you might start to pay attention now. Data from the Census Bureau predicts that in about 30 years, people 65 and older will outnumber people 18 and younger. The census also specifically asks people if they're grandparents, which is a number that has grown more than 20 percent since 2001.
