What stands out in Easton

Data from Polco GPAL
Standouts compare Easton with communities in Maryland or of similar population size. Surprises are where the measured figure was unusually far from what Polco's model expected. Each fact gives its year; public data runs one to two years behind.

In 2024, Easton's overcrowded homes was 3.3%; Polco's model expected 8.1%. It outperformed expectations.
