Senior citizen is a euphemism for old people. The term is often used by politicians to avoid offending them, and even to pander to them, as they vote in much higher percentages than younger people.
While there is no specific age which defines when someone becomes a senior citizen, at 65 years old Americans first qualify for Medicare and that is a political demarcation point.
