Childless Older Americans
Speaker: Tayelor Valerio
More than 15 million adults, or nearly one in six Americans aged 55 and older, are childless, and the levels of childlessness among adults are expected to increase. Using data from the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2018 Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP), Dr. Tayelor Valerio will provide an overview of the childless older American population and compare their demographic, economic, health, and household characteristics to those of biological parents of the same age group.
Dr. Tayelor Valerio, Ph.D., is a survey statistician at the U.S. Census Bureau. She is an analyst for the Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP), the American Community Survey (ACS), and the June Fertility Supplement of the Current Population Survey (CPS), where she focuses on topics related to fertility and family.
