Retiring to Delaware | Pros & Cons | Living in Coastal Delaware 

As I was born and raised on rt 54 in Selbyville, I hate the months of May-September. You can’t go anywhere or do anything due to the traffic. This right now is my favorite time of year.

Great video. I did not realize that DE does not tax social security. Thank you for that piece of information.

This was really helpful. We are looking to relocate from NY and Delaware is high on our list.

I moved from the Texas Gulf coast to Felton Delaware 6 years ago and have no regrets. I've learned not to go to the beach in the summer if I can avoid it. I also learned the joys of the back roads. Homeowners insurance is a lot cheaper and like the video stated taxes are low. I just got my tax bill for $1700. Out of that $350 is earmarked for trash pickup. As for healthcare, I have not really had that much of a problem, and it is better than what I had in Texas as I can usually get an appointment with my primary care provider on the same day, and with two hospitals being less than 15 minutes away emergency care isn't that far away.

Very practical and honest assessments, great presentation!

Thank you. Considering making the move next year. Escaping from New York.

Thanks Matt, great videos. Soon-to-be-retired NY'ers here. Your info helps us to make a more informed decision.

Thanks Matt! Always a great video! 😎👍

Sounds like the Pro's outweigh the Con's! One suggestion for a future video: Pro's and Con's on owning a boat in Delaware! Have a great day 😀

Thanks, Matt! Always informative in your videos.

Excellent job.

Thanks for your information, also keeping my eyes on Delaware as one of the places to move to from NYC. Definitely will not like coastal areas cos of flood

New subscriber, very interesting and informative. We're in Maryland and looking to relocate.

No snow to shovel in NJ yet!

I retired to Delaware….Where. ? I live in Christiana Mall 😅

How did the Fountain of Youth in Lewes not make the pro list?

Looking for a small little place(rental) cottage/apt. Can you help? We are both seniors.

We are looking for the condo to live when we retire. We need the house near the Bethany beach only 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. How much do I have to pay for?

Does Delaware offers Medicaid and snap benefit

Perrhaps use pictures show the Beach V just talking

As you say the cost of housing is high because of the current inflation. Needless to say, an inflation under the administration of Joe Biden. Although Delaware interest me for me personally that would be one more con because Joe Biden has at least one residence in Delaware, possibly two.
