Marlboro Meadows, MD population, income and ZIP codes

Marlboro Meadows CDP is a small town in Maryland, with 4,003 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #225 of 536 ranked by population — larger than 58% of them. The median age here is 43.6 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 Marlboro Meadows CDP earn a median of $107,585 a year, 37% above the national figure of $78,538 and within a couple of points of 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 5.3% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Marlboro Meadows CDP is valued at $383,200, 26.3% above the national figure and 4% below the $397,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,346 a month, 66.9% above the national figure, or roughly $28,152 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 26.2% 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 3.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 95.4% 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.

All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. 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.
