And nationally, the median age is 39.3 years, according to the US Census.

Perhaps the best way to think it all that is this way: Yes, Maine is the eldest state when it comes to the age of its residents – but really folks, 45.3 years old is barely middle-aged, so there’s lots of life left in us yet!
