Population Density
The Jones Falls Area in Baltimore, Maryland, experienced population fluctuations from 2010 to 2022. This study examines the changes in population density and their implications for the neighborhood's urban characteristics.
In 2022, the population density of the Jones Falls Area was 4,389.28 people per square mile, categorizing it as a dense suburban neighborhood. This density indicates a mixture of housing types, potentially including townhouses, low-rise apartments, and single-family homes.
The population trends show notable fluctuations. From 2012 to 2014, the neighborhood experienced significant growth, reaching a peak of 1,426 residents in 2014. This increase may have been associated with urban renewal efforts or housing developments.
Following 2014, the population gradually declined until 2020, reaching a low of 1,200 residents. This decrease could be attributed to changing economic conditions, shifts in housing preferences, or the initial impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.
In 2021, there was a sharp increase in population to 1,329 residents. However, this growth was not sustained, as the population decreased to 1,235 in 2022.
The Jones Falls Area, named after the nearby stream, likely offers residents access to green spaces or walking trails. This natural feature may influence the neighborhood's character.
The moderate population density and estimated 473 housing units in 2022 suggest a mix of lifestyles. Residents may have access to urban amenities and public transportation while enjoying some outdoor recreational opportunities.
The observed population fluctuations indicate that the Jones Falls Area is a dynamic neighborhood, responsive to urban development trends and potentially influenced by economic factors affecting Baltimore. While maintaining a relatively stable population base, the area continues to evolve, possibly adapting to changing resident preferences and city-wide initiatives.
