50s are "late middle age", and 60-65 is the crossover point to "elderly" in my book. You're likely in the last couple of decades of your life by then.

In most western countries your 60s is when you start drawing an old age pension. The post ww2 boom started when people got home so births from about 1946. Those people have been drawing US social security for over a decade.

I guess you are in your twenties?

There's plenty of sources out there for definitions. Most of them say 65 and almost all of the rest say 60.

You go directly from middle aged to elderly, there isn't a step in between. Being elderly can cover a very wide range of years.
