What it’s like
The place. Warwick is a small community in Cecil County, in the northeastern corner of Maryland, where the state meets Delaware. The county's figures show a typical resident who is middle-aged, and most homes across Cecil County are lived in by their owners. Household incomes are spread across a wide range, and a meaningful share of households fall below the poverty line.
Work. Across Cecil County, many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, in manufacturing, and in professional and business services. Unemployment has eased over the past year, and the number of jobs has edged up slightly. A minority of adults hold a four-year degree, and only a small share of workers work from home, so most people travel to a workplace each day.
Things to do. Old Bohemia Wildlife Management Area is in or beside town, a protected area for walking and watching wildlife. Elk Neck State Park, a protected area a short drive away, offers woods and shoreline to explore. The Bohemia River, also a short drive away, suits anyone who enjoys being on or beside the water.
