population of PA is 12.79 Million

% under 21? Maybe 15% Maybe 10%? Lets call it 10%

So there are 11.5 million Pennsylvanians that could obtain a LTCF.
Knock of 500,000 for felons and nutjobs and people with misdemeanor offenses that could have 2 year sentence or more.

We're looking at 10% of the eligible population that has a LTCF.

Not too shabby!!!
