Payroll per Employee in the Fruitland, MD ZIP Next to the County Figure
Employers in ZIP 21826 paid $38.7 million across 1,057 employees in 2023, about $36,636 per employee (ZBP 2023, our arithmetic). The countywide figure was about $52,307 per employee ($1.84 billion across 35,249 employees, CBP 2023, our arithmetic). The gap reflects the ZIP's mix of service shops, stores and food businesses rather than the pay of any one employer.
For a funding request, the useful number is your own payroll calendar, not the ZIP average. A shop whose wages fall due before its customers pay has the same timing gap in Fruitland, MD as anywhere else in the county.
