ZIP 20751 in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

ZIP 20751 is a small town in Anne Arundel County, Maryland, with 2,552 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #288 of 477 ranked by population — larger than 39% of them. The median age here is 44.3 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 ZIP 20751 earn a median of $122,448 a year, 55.9% above the national figure of $78,538. 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 1.6% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 20751 is valued at $447,700, 47.6% above the national figure, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 93.5% 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.

The Census withheld gross rent for ZIP 20751 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.

Reading ZIP 20751 in context

How 20751 sits inside Anne Arundel County and Maryland.

ZIP 20751 is tabulated inside Anne Arundel County, Maryland, one of 37 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 477 across Maryland. Population sits in the small-town band, typically one main street plus the addresses that feed into it. County assignment on this page follows the largest share of the ZIP's land area, which matters where a delivery route crosses a county line: mail addressed to 20751 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 20751 reports a median household income of $122,448, 4% below the $128,052 county median, and 17% above the $104,338 typical MD ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $447,700, 10% below the county figure and 12% above the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at not published a month, which is why it reads higher than the advertised rent on a listing for the same unit.

Maryland charges 6% statewide, and no local sales tax is layered on top, so the state rate is the full amount collected in 20751.

Everything above comes from the Census Bureau American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates for this ZIP Code Tabulation Area, with sales tax rates traced to the state revenue agency. Five-year estimates pool sixty months of responses, so they are stable enough to compare 20751 with its neighbours but always trail the current year, and any value the Census suppressed for sample size is shown as unpublished rather than filled in with a model.
