Bel Air North, MD population, income and ZIP codes

Bel Air North CDP is a small city in Maryland, with 31,599 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #40 of 536 ranked by population — larger than 92% of them. The median age here is 40.5 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in Bel Air North CDP earn a median of $137,995 a year, 75.7% above the national figure of $78,538 and 27% above the $109,026 median for the 332 Maryland cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 3.2% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Bel Air North CDP is valued at $422,700, 39.3% above the national figure and 6% above the $397,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,651 a month, 17.4% above the national figure, or roughly $19,812 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 14.4% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.1×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 90.9% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.

Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
