Review from the web

I love living here! The leasing managers are so nice and resourceful. They listen to your needs. The area is quiet and the homes are beautiful. The neighbors are nice as well. Maintenance is quick & and easy process when needed something. The application process is also easy when applying. I’ve never been more happier. If you do get approved here you won’t be disappointed.

Situated on the picturesque St. Jones River in the coastal plain of the Delaware River is Dover, the capital of Delaware.

A few buildings date back to the city's early days, including the Bradford-Loockerman House, the John Bullen House, the Delaware Governor's Mansion, and homes in the Victorian Dover Historic District. These structures, plus additional ones located in the city, are on the National Register of Historic Places.

As one of the fastest-growing cities in Delaware, Dover has nearly 40,000 residents. The city's largest employer is the state government, while other major employers include Dover Air Force Base, Kraft Foods, and Procter & Gamble.

The city is known for hosting NASCAR races at the Dover Motor Speedway each spring, which can draw thousands of spectators. The speedway's nearby woodlands also serve as the venue for the Firefly Music Festival every summer. Delaware State University, the state's only historically black university, is located in Dover, along with the Delaware State University Downtown campus.
