2. “A California study found that annual medical costs for prison inmates 55 and older are $60, 000 to $80, 000.”

4. “Young prisoners cost the system $21,000 per year on average while older prisoners cost $60,000. And for those over age 60 the average cost is $69,000 per year — twice the cost of a nursing home.” “The situation will get worse as our prison population continues to age. In 1998 7.2 percent of the 1.8 million prisoners in federal, state and local prisons were over age 50, up from 4.9 percent in 1990 And the numbers will increase to as much as 10 percent over the next few years.”
