Is it still possible to become good at chess later in life?

I'm (29) really interested in improving at chess, but it feels a bit overwhelming since I only recently got into it. I also have this notion that most skilled players started young. I'm not aiming to become an IM or GM (I’m not delusional, lol), I just want to be able to play competitively and hold my own against others. So, is it possible to improve at my age?
