The number of centenarians – folks at least 100 years old – is expected to quadruple in the U.S. over the next 30 years, according to the Pew Research Center.
The Center, citing Census Bureau projections, says the number of American centenarians is expected to grow from just over 100,000 today to around 422,000 by 2054.
That’ll continue the steady increase in the U.S. centenarian population, which has nearly tripled over the last several decades.
And it marks an astounding increase from 1950, when there were just an estimated 2,300 Americans 100 or older.
