Highfield-Cascade, MD population, income and ZIP codes

Highfield-Cascade CDP is a small town in Maryland, with 1,079 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #328 of 536 ranked by population — larger than 38% of them. The median age here is 38.1 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 Highfield-Cascade CDP earn a median of $62,857 a year, 20% below the national figure of $78,538 and 42% below the $109,026 median for the 332 Maryland cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 4.1% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Highfield-Cascade CDP is valued at $225,600, 25.6% below the national figure and 43% below the $397,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 89.3% 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.

The Census withheld gross rent for Highfield-Cascade 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.
