Sure, it's cheaper, and often fresher, and gets shipped around the country to some of the best restaurants, but Maryland's got the market cornered on "Too Much Old Bay". All the time - after all, millions of New Yorkers, New Jersians, and Pennsylvanians make their way to Delaware's beaches every year, and what do they know? If you're a summer sellout, I guess you might like Rehoboth.
Otherwise, steer clear. The Downtown will suck you in! That 14 miles from The Delaware Memorial Bridge until you pay the toll into Easton, well, there's nothing really more to the state than that stretch of I No hills, no canyons, nothing at all to see or do.
Maybe you'd like Delaware if you only like watching TV or sleeping. There are hardly any mom and pop or hole in the wall restaurants in the entire state! I'll tell you one thing - you certainly won't stumble upon amazing seafood in the middle of a cornfield in this weird, boring state.
Delaware's state parks are boring - you might as well fall asleep as you trek through them. There aren't amazing historic landmarks, old farms, and gorgeous trails to check out.
It's really just, well, flat roads. There's certainly no reason to move to Delaware if you're a nature-lover. That's just a little local concert. You'll have to go through all sorts of trouble to get a surf fishing permit, which totally isn't worth it. It's not like the Delaware Bay and Atlantic Ocean have some of the most amazing surf fishing spots on the eastern seaboard - you won't regret missing these unbelievable surf fishing spots.
The one-page application is just a lot, and I get that. I guess that comes with being the First State, but who would want to move to Delaware if all the historic ruins from World War II and American Colonialism are still there, taking up valuable space?

Thank you! If I were a young single looking to leave NYC for a significantly better cost of living, I wouldn't be looking at any location in the Northeast. Wilmington is tolerable for a something partnered person like me. I've heard some great things about Providence, but the winters put me off and I don't think the economy is very good there at all at the moment.
There seems to be plenty going on in Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill, as well. Austin, TX has a great quality of life, lots of stuff happening and a low cost of living and has only been lightly impacted by the recession. I've lived here my entire life and yes, it is as boring as everyone says.
However, more to the point, you mentioned there not being any jobs in rural PA and upstate NY, which is why you were looking to Delaware with it's lower cost of living. Currently, this state is hemorraging jobs. Make sure you take a serious look at the employment situation before you make a firm decision.
