In the United States people in their 60s are usually not considered elderly. The age when a person is considered elderly varies by culture and by circumstance. Some people in their 60s are more akin to being in their 50s. Others appear to be in their 70s. Genes and lifestyle contribute to variations. The law looks at an individual's condition and circumstance after they enter their 60s.
A sixty-year old may be regarded as 'at-risk' by our legal system, depending on their health.
Others at-risk are the disabled and the very young.
