3 Challenges You Might Face as a Retiree Who's Single
The number of older Americans who identify as single has been growing in recent years. CNN reports that nearly 16 million people aged 65 and over lived alone in 2022, which is 3x the number of Americans that age who lived alone during the 1960s. And as baby boomers age, that number is expected to rise.
Of course, it's not just higher rates of divorce that have led to an uptick in the older senior population. Some people simply opt out of marriage and/or romantic partnerships to begin with. Others may be approaching retirement without a spouse, due to the death of their partners.
