The average age at which American retirees leave the work force has risen to 62, according to a Gallup poll.
It is the highest Gallup has found since first asking Americans this question in 1991, when the age was 57. It was 59 and 60 for the years between 2002 and 2012. Last year, the average age of reported retirement was 61.
The survey also found that the average age at which non-retired Americans expect to retire is 66, which has increased slowly from 63 in 2002.
