What it’s like
The place. Still Pond is a very small community in Kent County, Maryland, with a population far smaller than most towns. Homes here are valued at a level that sits well within reach of a typical household in the county, where incomes are around the middle of what is seen across much of the state. Winters are cold, with January the chilliest month, and summers turn properly hot by July. Snow falls through the winter, and rain and melted snow add up to a fair amount over the year.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, in professional and business services, and in manufacturing. Across Kent County, the largest workplaces include Washington College, Kent County Public Schools and Chester River Hospital Center. Unemployment across the county is lower than it was a year earlier, though the county has fewer jobs than the year before.
Things to do. Water is the main draw nearby. The Sassafras River and the Elk River are each a short drive away, and the Bohemia River and the Chester River are a longer drive. For a day among protected land, Elk Neck State Park and the Susquehanna National Wildlife Refuge are both a longer drive away.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Still Pond’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Kent County.
