Maryland Family Networks released their two signature publications: Trends in Childcare 2016 and Childcare Demographics 2016–broken down by county (click here for Montgomery). These helpful resources provide a summary of the critical components of child care (demand, supply, and cost) from 2011 to 2020. The Montgomery County report provides detailed data on numbers of children and cost and availability of care. For example, the data indicates that a median income family ($1245,357) with two children can expect to spend 21% of their income on child care.
