Calvert County, MD HUD Metro FMR Area

Dunkirk, Maryland has about 2,166 people. That count is a 2020–2024 Census average, not a headcount from one day.

A typical home is worth about $561,300.

HUD's fair-market rent for a 2-bedroom in Calvert County is $1,890 a month. That is the county number, not an apartment listing in Dunkirk. It runs from October 2026 through September 2027.

In the Lexington Park, MD metro area, prices sit at 100.8 when the U.S. average is 100. That is a 2024 BEA index.

Maryland taxes wages. A typical combined sales tax is 6.0% as of January 1, 2026. That mix is statewide, not Dunkirk's exact store tax.

Some places in Maryland add a local wage tax. In 2023 the state average was about 2.40% of income. That is not a Dunkirk bill.

In July 2026, a typical Maryland home paid 21.41¢ per kilowatt-hour. That is a state average from EIA, not Dunkirk's bill.

EIA did not publish a 2025 all-grades gas price for Maryland in the table we use.
