The bar chart illustrates the percentage of the US population aged 65 and over for each decade spanning from 1900 to 2000.
Overall, there was a substantial increase in all three age groups within the US population over the century. Notably, the percentage of individuals aged 65 to 74 was consistently the highest among the three age categories.
Initially, in 1900, the proportion of individuals aged 65-74 stood at 2.9%, which saw a gradual rise to 3.3% by 1920. Subsequently, there was a notable increase to 5.6% by 1950. The percentage remained steady at around 6% during the 1960s and 1970s, before surging to its peak of 7.3% in 1990.
In contrast, the percentage of those aged 75-84 began at 1% in 1900, while the figure for individuals aged 85 and above was merely 0.2%. The percentage of the 75-84 age group consistently outstripped that of the 85+ group, reaching 4.4% in 1990 and maintaining this figure in 2000.
