About Delaware
The story of First State
Delaware runs 96 miles from the Brandywine Valley in the north to the Atlantic beaches of Rehoboth and Bethany in the south.
The First State to ratify the Constitution on December 7, 1787, Delaware still calls itself first for good reason — and hasn't stopped punching above its weight since.
Coastal beach towns, tax-free shopping, and quiet colonial river towns give Delaware a mid-Atlantic identity all its own.
Food. Blue crabs, chicken (America's poultry industry started here), scrapple, boardwalk fries, and Grotto pizza at the beach.
Sports. Delaware punches above its weight in NASCAR at Dover Motor Speedway and college lacrosse at UD.
Outdoors. Beach the Delaware coast, kayak the Brandywine, or bird-watch Bombay Hook — small state, surprising range.
Economy. More than half of U.S. public companies are incorporated in Delaware, thanks to business-friendly courts and tax structure.
Landmarks. Visitors flock to Rehoboth Beach Boardwalk, Winterthur, Cape Henlopen, Dover International Speedway.
Fun fact. Delaware has more chickens than people — by a factor of about 200 to 1.
