🇺🇸 AMERICA GROWS OLDER WHILE THE YOUNG FADE OUT
The U.S. just hit a record median age of 39.1.
Since 2020, the over-65 crowd surged by 13 percent while the number of children dropped.
Eleven states now have more seniors than kids.
That includes Maine, Florida, and Oregon.
What does this mean?
Well, get ready for rising pressure on healthcare, fewer workers, supporting the important debate over declining birthrates.
Some call for more babies to save the economy, but the costs of parenting keep rising.
The U.S. needs to pay attention
Fewer Americans are choosing to have children.
The youth gap is no longer a warning.
