The poverty rate among older Americans is rising, survey shows (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Poverty hit a record low overall in the U.S. last year, but U.S. seniors are an exception to that good news. For five years running, poverty has been up for that group. NPR's Jennifer Ludden reports on a new survey that aims to figure out what's going on. JENNIFER LUDDEN, BYLINE: The latest federal data on poverty is from last year, but the economy, inflation, prices, interest rates - it's changing fast. The AARP Foundation has started surveying low-income, older adults every quarter to see how
The economic squeeze is pushing up poverty rates for older adults (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The poverty rate among seniors rose for the fifth straight year in 2025, "a trend no other age group experienced," according to an AARP Foundation analysis of a new Census Bureau report.

They left two years ago so he could go to graduate school, and they moved back to San Francisco in June, just as the housing market here has exploded. "I couldn't have timed it worse, honestly," he lamented after touring a condo in the affluent neighborhood of Presidio Heights. He has a solid income from a new job. But finding a two-bedroo
Amid cost of living stress, many parents are supporting children well into adulthood (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Mabel Lago and her husband are retired and in their 70s. But before they decided to move from New Jersey to South Carolina this year, they checked with their younger son. That's because he was still living with them, at age 39. "We could not leave him behind, because he could not afford to live on his own," she said. Her son is a hard worker, she explains, but his job helping to manage a liquor store paid low wages and no benefits. He also has Type 1 diabetes, and his Affordable Care Act insuran
