The population was 6,425 at the 2010 census.<ref name="Census 2010">{{cite web| url=http://factfinder2.census.gov/bkmk/table/1.0/en/DEC/10_DP/G001/1600000US2466762| title=Geographic Identifiers: 2010 Demographic Profile Data (G001): Riverside CDP, Maryland| publisher=U.S. Census Bureau| work=American Factfinder| accessdate=August 1, 2017}}{{dead link|bot=medic|date=April 2020}}{{cbignore|bot=medic}}</ref> The term "Riverside" is generally used interchangeably with "Belcamp"; both names are accepted for the [[U.S. Postal Service]]'s [[ZIP Code]] of 21017. However, the original community of Belcamp is located south of [[U.S. Route 40 in Maryland|U.S. Route 40]], outside the Riverside CDP. ==Geography== Riverside is located at {{Coord|39|28|35|N|76|14|42|W|type:city}} (39.476385, −76.244943).<ref name="GR1">{{cite web|url=https://www.census.gov/geographies/reference-files/time-series/geo/gazetteer-files.html|publisher=[[United States Census Bureau]]|accessdate=2011-04-23|date=2011-02-12|title=US Gazetteer files: 2010, 2000, and 1990}}</ref> It is bordered to the north by [[Maryland Route 7]] (Philadelphia Road) and to the south by [[U.S. Route 40 in Maryland|U.S. Route 40]] (Pulaski Highway). It extends west to the [[Bush River (Maryland)|Bush River]] and James Run, and to the east it reaches to Grays Run. [[Maryland Route 543]] (Riverside Parkway) passes through the center of the CDP, crossing Route 7 and ending at US 40. Just north of the CDP, MD 543 crosses [[Interstate 95]] at Exit 80. I-95 leads southwest {{convert|30|mi}} to [[Baltimore]] and northeast {{convert|45|mi}} to [[Wilmington, Delaware]]. [[Bel Air, Maryland|Bel Air]], the Harford County seat, is {{convert|8|mi|0}} northwest of Riverside via MD 543. According to the [[United States Census Bureau]], the Riverside CDP has a total area of {{convert|6.1|sqkm|order=flip}}, of which {{convert|0.03|sqkm|order=flip|2}}, or 0.48%, is water.<ref name="Census 2010"/> ==Commerce== {{unreferenced section|date=February 2020}} One of the major revenue sources in Riverside is derived from its location, connecting Route 40 with Interstate 95 via Route 543. Hence, many of the commercial establishments in this area are designed for long-distance drivers. These include four hotels and four gas stations/convenience stores. All commercially zoned property is located off Route 543, also known as the Riverside Parkway. The Riverside area also includes multiple business parks, among which is a major industrial park that features numerous corporations and business offices such as [[Northrop Grumman]]. [[Mercedes-Benz]] had a manufacturing building at one time, but that is now closed and the building is for sale. A business park built on Route 40 at the former site of the [[Bata Shoes]] factory opened in 2000 and originally provided offices for Clark Turner Signature Homes and SURVICE Engineering. Expansion to the business park has brought in [[Booz Allen Hamilton]] and [[MediaSentry|SafeNet]]. ==Demographics== {{US Census population |2020= 7021 |footnote=U.S. Decennial Census<ref name="DecennialCensus">{{cite web|url=http://www.census.gov/prod/www/decennial.html|title=Census of Population and Housing|publisher=Census.gov|accessdate=June 4, 2016}}</ref> }} As of the [[census]]<ref name="GR2">{{cite web|url=https://www.census.gov|publisher=[[United States Census Bureau]]|accessdate=2008-01-31|title=U.S. Census website}}</ref> of 2000, there were 6,128 people, 2,322 households, and 1,569 families residing in the CDP.
