middle aged
Middle age is the period of age beyond young adulthood but before the onset of old age. The exact range is disputed and can be considered of arbitrary nature, but the general consensus has placed middle age as the age range from around 40 until 60, with about 5 years of leeway on either side. This phase of life is marked by gradual physical, cognitive, and social changes in individuals as they age.
