Is this a good place to relocate to? - 1/3/2012
I am a single middle-aged woman looking to relocate to Delaware from Rural West Virginia. I'm looking for a place to build a small home or buy one that I can affordably update. I would like a small-town feel that also has some entertainment available...decent restaurants, theatre, music, shopping (not WalMart), etc. I would like to be in an area that's no more than two hours from D.C. and Baltimore, or the same distance from N.Y. and Philly; preferably the former. I'd like to find a place where newcomers/outsiders are welcomed and treated "friendly" by the locals. I would need to meet people immediately upon taking up residence to help steer me in the right direction when it comes to building/remodeling, etc. Any suggestions on the best area of DE to start looking? What towns fit the criteria mentioned above? What is the cost of home construction in DE? What does land (to build on) cost? What would an updated 3br 2bath house, w/garage and a small yard cost in different areas?

I moved to Delaware from New Jersey after I retired about 7 years ago. If I had stayed in NJ, I would be struggling through my retirement years just to pay taxes and insurance.
Here in Magnolia my taxes on a beautful new construction home backing up to a pond and woods are about $1000 a year vs. the $6000 I'd be paying in NJ on a 30 year old condo.
We have no sales tax in DE, and my car insurance on a new Acura TL is $700 a year vs. the $1700 a yr. I was averaging for insurance in NJ. I have now purchased a small
