Living in Darlington


Darlington is a tiny town located in the state of Maryland. With a population of 398 people and two associated neighborhoods, Darlington is the 259th largest community in Maryland. Much of the housing stock in Darlington was built prior to World War II, making it one of the older and more historic towns in the country.

Also of interest is that Darlington has more people living here who work in computers and math than 95% of the places in the US.

Telecommuters are a relatively large percentage of the workforce: 11.38% of people work from home. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce it is high relative to the nation. These workers are often telecommuters who work in knowledge-based, white-collar professions. For example, Silicon Valley has large numbers of people who telecommute. Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.

In addition, Darlington is home to many people who could be described as "urban sophisticates", which are people who are not only wealthy and employed in professional occupations, but highly educated to boot. Urban sophisticates have urbane tastes - whether they reside in a big or small city, a suburb, or a little town. Urban sophisticates support bookstores, quality clothing stores, enjoy luxury travel, and in big cities, they are truly the patrons of the arts, attending and supporting institutions such as opera, symphony, ballet, and theatre.

Residents will find that the town is relatively quiet. This is because it is not over-populated, and it has fewer college students, renters, and young children - all of whom can be noisy at times. So, if you're looking for a relatively peaceful place to live, Darlington is worth considering.

As is often the case in a small town, Darlington doesn't have a public transportation system that people use for their commute.

In terms of college education, Darlington is substantially better educated than the typical community in the nation, which has 21.84% of the adults holding a bachelor's degree or graduate degree: 33.45% of adults in Darlington have a college degree.

The per capita income in Darlington in 2022 was $48,196, which is middle income relative to Maryland, and wealthy relative to the rest of the US. This equates to an annual income of $192,784 for a family of four.
