Church Hill town, MD in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Church Hill town is a small town in Maryland, with 1,052 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #329 of 536 ranked by population — larger than 38% of them. The median age here is 33.2 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.

Households in Church Hill town earn a median of $69,688 a year, 11.3% below the national figure of $78,538 and 36% below the $109,026 median for the 332 Maryland cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 10.2% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Church Hill town is valued at $272,000, 10.3% below the national figure and 32% below the $397,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,179 a month, 16.1% below the national figure, or roughly $14,148 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.3% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 81.7% 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. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
