What People Say: Tell us what you love About Delaware

“ I love the beach! ”

“low cost to live & taxes”

“ The pace of life. As I travel FROM the Wash beltway across the Bay Bridge, I get to the top of the bridge, see the eastern shore and take a big sigh of relief! I know I'll be home (Ocean View) in 1 1/2 hours. Sweet. ”

“ I grew up on the Oregon Coast and have been in Delaware for 3 years now. I LOVE that I can lay and swim on the beach without a wet suit or a hoodie! The weather here is always beautiful and the beaches are gorgeous! Everyone is so friendly and there is so much to do! The food, the shopping, the local events... I love living here at the beach! ”

“ I love watching my kids grow up loving and learning about the ocean -- playing beach soccer, finding sand crabs with their cousins, and making shell necklaces -- memories they will never forget. ”

“ I love jogging in the State Parks in Delaware. There are some great trails in the Cape Henlopen State Park for runners. There's also the Junction and Breakwater trail between Lewes and Rehoboth that is beautiful and soft on the knees. My favorite is the running trail around Gordon's Pond in North Rehoboth. It's absolutely amazing back there. ”

“Delaware seems to have the "slowed down lifestyle" I'm looking for.”

“Location”

“ There is no other place that you can enjoy the beach and bay, tax free shopping, seafood, wonderful weather, great entertainment, and beautiful people. Only the Delaware beaches! I have never experienced so many different types of people love and respect each other; it's Delaware living. Heather Knowles-Loving Life ”

“We are looking to relocate. And we have always liked Delware”

“ You can't beat the Delaware beaches. Clean, fun, no sales tax and close to Washington (area I grew up in). Bought a 2nd home in Bethany Beach and never looked back. Once the kids are gone, my wife and I will transplant permanently to this area. Can't wait. ”

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

“ 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. ”
