“ I can't think of ONE thing I love about DE. There are way too many!!! I love the small town atmosphere of living at the beach, knowing everyone, the beach, the walking, the biking, the golf, the kayaking, the food, the people, and did I mention the food??? I wake up and say "just pinch me, this is too good!!!" ”

“ I love the LOW taxes and quietness of the state. ”

Patricia I like to walk for hours and look at nature.

“ I love the slower pace than that of NJ...the people here are so welcoming. Have been here 16 years and don't look back a day! Moved from the mountains and yes I miss them but the trade-off is our wonderfully clean and beautiful white sandy beaches on the DE bay and the Atlantic ocean! Life is good in Sussex County!! ”

Susan Gigon Retired

“ I love the water! ”

Susan Attia Water lover

“ I always said I'd retire at the beach; I never knew I'd be so lucky as to start my career here right out of college. Six years later, I still have trouble believing that "vacation" is daily life for us! I feel very spoiled to have the ocean and beaches at our disposal everyday, not to mention all of the other recreational, historical and resort attractions. And I love that it's an easy commute to a number of cool major cities! Delaware packs a lot of punch into a small package. ”
