    Americans over the age of 65 represent less than 20% of the population. The group of people 60 to 64 is 6.5% of the population. That’s not even a quarter of the population.

    As to your question, yes. Even if it was 90% of the population that was 60+. being an elder, senior citizen, a member of the grandparent generation, olds, or whatever you’d like to call them has more to do with the individual’s age than how many of them there are.
