About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the Maryland population distribution across 18 age groups. It lists the population in each age group along with the percentage population relative of the total population for Maryland. The dataset can be utilized to understand the population distribution of Maryland by age. For example, using this dataset, we can identify the largest age group in Maryland.

Key observations

The largest age group in Maryland was for the group of age 35 to 39 years years with a population of 429,168 (6.95%), according to the ACS 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates. At the same time, the smallest age group in Maryland was the 80 to 84 years years with a population of 113,210 (1.83%).

About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the data for the Maryland population pyramid, which represents the Maryland population distribution across age and gender, using estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey (ACS) 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates. It lists the male and female population for each age group, along with the total population for those age groups. Higher numbers at the bottom of the table suggest population growth, whereas higher numbers at the top indicate declining birth rates. Furthermore, the dataset can be utilized to understand the youth dependency ratio, old-age dependency ratio, total dependency ratio, and potential support ratio.

Key observations

• Youth dependency ratio, which is the number of children aged 0-14 per 100 persons aged 15-64, for Maryland, is 28.2.
• Old-age dependency ratio, which is the number of persons aged 65 or over per 100 persons aged 15-64, for Maryland, is 24.9.
• Total dependency ratio for Maryland is 53.1.
• Potential support ratio, which is the number of youth (working age population) per elderly, for Maryland is 4.0.

About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the Maryland population over the last 20 plus years. It lists the population for each year, along with the year on year change in population, as well as the change in percentage terms for each year. The dataset can be utilized to understand the population change of Maryland across the last two decades. For example, using this dataset, we can identify if the population is declining or increasing. If there is a change, when the population peaked, or if it is still growing and has not reached its peak. We can also compare the trend with the overall trend of United States population over the same period of time.

Key observations

In 2024, the population of Maryland was 6.26 million, a 0.74% increase year-by-year from 2023. Previously, in 2023, Maryland population was 6.22 million, an increase of 0.40% compared to a population of 6.19 million in 2022. Over the last 20 plus years, between 2000 and 2024, population of Maryland increased by 952,716. In this period, the peak population was 6.26 million in the year 2024. The numbers suggest that the population has not reached its peak yet and is showing a trend of further growth. Source: U.S. Census Bureau Population Estimates Program (PEP).

The primary purpose of census tracts is to provide a stable set of geographic units for the presentation of census data and comparison back to previous decennial censuses. Census tracts generally have a population size between 1,200 and 8,000 people, with an optimum size of 4,000 people.

After the 2020 Census, there are three key changes to the Census Bureau’s urban area concept and criteria:We increased the minimum population threshold to qualify as urban from 2,500 to 5,000, and we added an alternative: instead of qualifying based on population size, areas can now qualify based on a minimum housing unit threshold.We now use housing unit density instead of population density.We no longer distinguish between different types of urban areas.The first two changes reflect a general shift by the Census Bureau toward using housing units to measure urbanization and identify qualifying urban areas. Each of these criteria changes is described more below (see this link from the Census Bureau).This is a MD iMAP hosted service.

The American Community Survey (ACS) is a nationwide, continuous survey designed to provide communities with reliable and timely demographic, housing, social and economic data. The ACS replaces the decennial census long form in 2010 and every year thereafter. The annual ACS sample is smaller than that of previous long form surveys resulting in a larger sampling error. Coefficients of Variation (CVs), which are statistical measures that show the relative amount of sampling error associated with an estimate, are presented here as a measure of reliability and usability of the data. The unit of geography used for the 2010 - 2014 data is the census tract - a small statistical area within a county, which is delineated every 10 years prior to the decennial census.Last Updated: UnknownThis is a MD iMAP hosted service.
