Retire in Delaware

"Beaches, waterways and outdoor recreation have helped make Sussex County one of the most popular retirement destinations in the Northeast. It doesn’t hurt that the area is more affordable than surrounding states (Delaware has no sales tax) and that several major cities (Baltimore, Washington, and Philadelphia) are within a two-hour drive." "Coastal Charms", The Wall Street Journal, May 15, 2010
