The folks over at Movoto put together a list of the best places to live in Delaware right now.
How Did They Do It?
Research on the topic was based on factual information surrounding things like education, income, and weather. Each of these locations in Delaware have over 5,000 residents and were judged on the following criteria:
- Total amenities
- Quality of life (cost of living, median home price, median rent, median household income, and student-to-teacher ratio)
- Total crimes
- Tax rates (sales tax and income tax)
- Unemployment
- Commute time
- Weather (temperature and air quality)
If we’re being honest, with Delaware being so small, there aren’t too many places that qualify for the list. According to the study, there were just 19 locations that met the criteria and were considered. You can read more about that here.
