A recent New York Times story calls a 69-year-old woman elderly. Philadelphia Metro considers 70 to be elderly. When NPR ran a story recently about a 71-year-old midwife, some readers objected to the word elderly in the original headline.
60 to 70 is on the young side of being elderly. 70 to 80 is the middle of being elderly. 80 to 90 is definitely elderly. That is if you judge by age. Look in the obituaries and you will see many never reach the age of 60. I know people in their 80's that are in better health than those in their 60's.
