Moderate Living
-
1/25/2008
The cost of living in Wilmington, Delaware is what I would consider "moderate" -- not as high as some of the surrounding big cities (i.e., Baltimore, Philadelphia, etc.), but not as low as what some call "slower" Delaware (the lower two counties). Apartments can range in price anywhere from $800 to $1500 for a two bedroom. Slightly south of the city, apartments are a little lower ($700/mo.). Housing tends to run in the mid $100s and up for ranch homes and townhomes. Naturally, the larger the home and more property, the higher the price.
Average median income is $30,000, with average household income running around $55,000.
