Maryland Park, MD population, income and ZIP codes

Maryland Park CDP is a very small community in Maryland, with 888 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #341 of 536 ranked by population — larger than 36% of them. The median age here is 39.1 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 Maryland Park CDP earn a median of $88,068 a year, 12.1% above the national figure of $78,538 and 19% below 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 18.1% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Maryland Park CDP is valued at $350,900, 15.7% above the national figure and 12% below the $397,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,947 a month, 109.6% above the national figure, or roughly $35,364 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 40.2% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is severely stretched — a median-income renter clears the cost-burden line by a wide margin before utilities beyond the gross-rent definition. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 62.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

Median income runs above the national figure while poverty also runs above it — a split distribution, not a uniformly comfortable place. Averages hide that; the two numbers together do not. With 888 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Maryland Park CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

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.
