Kent County, MD

Kingstown, Maryland has about 1,713 people. That count is a 2020–2024 Census average, not a headcount from one day.

A typical home is worth about $293,000.

HUD's fair-market rent for a 2-bedroom in Kent County is $1,241 a month. That is the county number, not an apartment listing in Kingstown. It runs from October 2026 through September 2027.

Maryland's prices sit at 105.0 when the U.S. average is 100. This place is not in a metro area with its own index, so this is the state number from BEA for 2024.

Maryland taxes wages. A typical combined sales tax is 6.0% as of January 1, 2026. That mix is statewide, not Kingstown'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 Kingstown bill.

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

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