So what do you know about
Delaware, other than the fact that the New
York-Washington Amtrak line makes a stop there on its
daily runs? Or that General Washington once made a
famous crossing across an eponymously named river? Well,
here's a clue: Henry Hudson (of Hudson River fame) was
the first guy to really explore the area in the early
17th century, and pretty much ever since, Delaware has
been one the country's most important and productive
industrial areas (the famous du Pont family has helped
see to that).
And just because it's a small little place on the
Atlantic coast, don't let that fool you: Delaware's
population density is well above the national average,
and most of its residents are urbanites. Wilmington, in
particular, offers citizens many of the cultural
advantages of its better-known sister cities to the
north and south, but is free from the million-plus
population figures, soaring real estate prices, and
competition for scarce resources. We turned up a slew of
pleasant surprises on our cyber visit.
