North Beach town, MD in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
North Beach town is a small town in Maryland, with 2,769 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #249 of 536 ranked by population — larger than 53% of them. The median age here is 30.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 North Beach town earn a median of $81,500 a year, 3.8% above the national figure of $78,538 and 25% 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 5.2% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in North Beach town is valued at $368,800, 21.6% above the national figure and 7% below the $397,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,817 a month, 29.2% above the national figure, or roughly $21,804 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 26.8% 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 4.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 56.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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.
Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. 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.
