The average retirement age continues to rise.
Average U.S. Retirement Age Rises to 62
Anyone want to help the average drop in 2014?

The average age at which U.S. retirees report retiring is 62, the highest Gallup has found since first asking Americans this question in 1991. This age has increased in recent years, while the average age at which non-retired Americans expect to retire, 66, has largely stayed the same. However, this age too has slowly increased from 63 in 2002.
