Oxon Hill CDP, MD in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Oxon Hill CDP is a mid-size town in Maryland, with 18,491 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #76 of 536 ranked by population — larger than 85% of them. The median age here is 43.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.
Households in Oxon Hill CDP earn a median of $94,989 a year, 20.9% above the national figure of $78,538 and 13% below 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 6.4% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Oxon Hill CDP is valued at $345,500, 13.9% above the national figure and 13% below the $397,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,673 a month, 19% above the national figure, or roughly $20,076 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 21.1% 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. 61.6% 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.
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.
