Berwyn Heights, a municipality in northwest Prince George’s County, Maryland, established a Quality-of-Life Commission in 2018 to address community concerns, particularly on pedestrian and bicyclist safety. This led to the creation of the Walkable Bikeable Berwyn Heights Task Force, which issued a report in February 2020 with specific recommendations. In fall 2021, the town sought funding from the Prince George’s County Planning Department’s Planning Assistance to Municipalities and Committees (PAMC) program to develop a Pedestrian and Bicyclist Safety Improvement Action Plan. Approved in May 2022, the project began in January 2023, aiming to enhance safety and accessibility through prioritized investments and a toolkit for additional safety treatments.

The Population, Housing, and Economic Survey is compiled and written by the Prince George’s County Planning Department and covers recent data on population, housing, social, and economic data for Prince George’s County, Maryland. It includes additional historical and comparative data with other localities of the metropolitan Washington, D.C. area. The report offers raw data with accompanying tables, graphs, or charts to show changes or trends in the data and how they are reflected in the County, all drawn from reliable and authoritative data sources. The overall purpose of the survey is to provide a convenient, organized summary and reference document for the general public, M-NCPPC, and local governments and to provide information to assist in planning and policymaking that would affect Prince George’s County. The Prince George’s County Planning Department expects to produce regular updates of the survey.
Note About the 2023 Edition of the Population, Housing, and Economic Survey: New data in this report focus on the data releases from the U.S. Bureau of the Census’s American Community Survey (ACS) for 2021 estimates as well as data from some other federal agencies (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics and Bureau of Economic Analysis. The ACS data reflect a 5-year sample survey (2017-2021) and is the latest ACS data available. We urge readers and those who use this report as a resource for research not to make direct comparisons to previous editions of the report when analyzing data about Prince George’s County to avoid errors or misinterpretations. In recent years, lower response rates to the survey, both locally and nationally, do not allow for statistically sound, annual analyses of data about the County or many other locations and jurisdictions. We accommodate this by providing and analyzing 2021 data in the proper context. For further information and explanation, please refer to the methodology section at the end of this report.
