      ab: The oldest of the baby boomers in the U.S., those born between 1946 and 1964, will turn 65 in 2011. About 40 million people are 65 years and older at present, and this figure is expected to double to 89 million by 2050. Rapid changes in age structure can result in major social and economic consequences. This issue examines the current and future U.S. population ages 65 and older, detailing demographic trends, health and well-being, and work and retirement, and considers the costs and implications of America's aging population.
