At an average of 794,762 residents per catchment, the data reflects both the concentrated population centers of Maryland's urban areas and the more dispersed settlement patterns of its rural regions. The following sections provide a detailed breakdown of regional service coverage, highlighting the locations, categories, and geographic patterns that characterize access across Maryland.
Top service hubs
The regional service landscape of Maryland is dominated by a handful of high-reach destinations. Sheppard Pratt - Baltimore - Washington Campus, a Hospital in Elkridge, leads all locations with a catchment population of 1,591,211 across 20 communities, making it the single most significant service hub in the state.
