Millsboro

According to the 2021 Report on State Planning Issues, Millsboro (est. pop. 7K) ranks #1 out of the 25 Sussex County cities for number of residential building permits issued (6-year total) – a leading indicator of population growth. This is especially noteworthy given that Sussex County is the fastest-growing county in the State of Delaware.

The best location. The Town is situated along US 113 (a 4-lane highway), SR 24, SR 20, and SR 30 and less than 20 miles from the coastal communities of Lewes, Rehoboth Beach, Dewey Beach, Bethany Beach, and Ocean City (MD). Millsboro was recently named by PC Magazine as 1 of the top-50 cities in the United States and Canada from which to work from home!

Emerging employment and retail center. Millsboro lowered impact fees by about 25% in an effort to further enhance its reputation as a destination for employers and retailers. Delmarva Health Pavilion, BJ’s, and Merck are just a few of the many names that call the Town home.

Welcoming to professionals and families alike. There is no sales tax. Property taxes and crime rates are low. The Indian River School District, which serves Millsboro, enjoys a solid reputation and, like the Town, is growing rapidly. Recreational opportunities include a boat ride on the Indian River (which provides direct access to the Atlantic Ocean) or a trip to Millsboro Lanes for bowling or arcade time, and cultural opportunities include a visit to the gallery at the Greater Millsboro Art League facility.
