The age that is considered old for a woman is age 75 although it used to be age 60 to 65 was considered old for women but now 75 is considered old age in a woman.

The age that is officially old is around 70 to 75.

For example the estimated perceived onset of old age for a 64 year old is 74 years and 7 months of age.

And for a 74 year old the estimated perceived onset of old age is 76 years and 8 months of age.

Some people feel old in their 50s and others feel old in their 60s and 70s.

Once you get to 70 or above you're in reality in old age.

Once you get to 80 plus you're certainly in old age.

Some people don't consider to be officially old until 80 and above.

While age 60 was considered “old” in many peoples' grandparents' time, 80 is the median age considered “old” today.

79% of adults 50+ think today's older adults are more active, and 58% say they are more open-minded and curious compared with the previous generation.

Traditionally, the “elderly” are considered to be those persons age 65 and older.

In general, however, once you turn 55 you start to enter the senior age demographic.

By the time you are 65 you reach the most common age for retirement from your job.

However, an increasing number of senior citizens are working after 65, so retirement can no longer be a key factor in becoming a senior.
