I live in Sussex county. It depends on what you like to do. The Rehoboth Beach (Lewes, Rehoboth, Dewey) area is nice. The western portion is filled with crack towns and farms 😂. People like to hang out in Dewey beach at night and get wasted. Occasionally there will be a decent live act. Other than that theres some decent state parks all over Delaware with nature trails and disc golf. There really isn't much to do in Sussex county though especially in the winter time. A lot more people stick around than they used to but most businesses still close or have limited hours. If you like quiet areas lower Delaware is nice. And if you want to go to a sporting event or concert Philly, Baltimore, and DC are close enough. Tax free shopping is also a plus but I have noticed that prices on things tent to cost more than in other states. At least you're not trying to figure out tax whenever looking at prices.

I've lived here all my life and I don't really plan on leaving or anything so I guess that's not bad
