Dover Delaware Homes for Rent

Home to a modest population of 30,370, Dover maintains a high profile among Delaware communities by serving as the state capital and the Kent County seat.  Along with a friendly, small-town atmosphere, the area combines a government complex with historic areas, Dover Air Force Base, riverside recreation areas, and NASCAR races.  The Green is the focal point of Dover’s historic district, which includes the site where the U.S. Constitution was first ratified, the Old Statehouse, and several of Delaware’s finest museums.  The Green also provides a charming backdrop for festivals and community celebrations throughout the year.  In addition to a thriving retail sector, Dover offers a wonderful selection of beautiful older homes and newer construction.  Without a doubt, State Street with its elegant Victorians ranks among Delaware’s most stunning thoroughfares.  Homes within the heart of town range from magnificent to modest, although attractive housing options are also available beyond the city limits.  Unusual for Kent County, the development of Fox Hall West just outside of Dover offers the luxury of semi-wooded lots, while executive developments like Pennwood draw local professionals to their custom five-bedroom and three-car garage homes.
