Downsville CDP, MD in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Downsville CDP is a very small community in Maryland, with 822 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #348 of 536 ranked by population — larger than 35% of them. The median age here is 40 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Downsville CDP earn a median of $212,605 a year, 170.7% above the national figure of $78,538 and 95% above 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 1.9% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Downsville CDP is valued at $344,600, 13.6% above the national figure and 13% below the $397,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 1.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 71.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

With 822 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Downsville CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for Downsville CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
