DELAWARE

Delaware is the largest community in the county, located within the rapidly growing region of Central Ohio. In March, 1994, an article in the Wall Street journal ranked Delaware 14th out of 20 of the fastest-growing, wealthiest and most educated areas of the country.
As a county seat of Delaware County, the city of Delaware offers the best of many worlds: the tree-lined streets and friendly faces of a small college town, the rural beauty of the surrounding countryside, and the urban excitement of nearby Columbus which is less than 30 minutes away.

The Delaware lifestyle includes the cultural offerings of a national liberal arts university, an unusual variety of recreational opportunities, and the excitement of "The Little Brown Jug." One of the jewels in the Triple Crown of Grand Circuit harness racing, "The Jug" brings thousands of visitors to Delaware each fall.

Citizens, community leaders and consultants are working together to guide the development of new residential areas and expanded community services, while maintaining Delaware's distinctive character. Delawareans are very proud of their community and confident of its strong future.
