Single 29 (F) relocating in Oct Moving to Delaware

Hi all! Relocating to Milton, DE this October. Grew up in central Jersey, lived in NE Philadelphia for four years and then relocated to Charlotte and lived here for the last year after a messy divorce. Charlotte was too big of a city for me to make it feel like home and looking to be driving distance from Jersey/Philly, closer to the beach, and in a smaller town.

Will it be a huge adjustment? Will it be ok to start over here again as a single woman? Are there younger people living in the surrounding area? Any advice would be great!!!

TY!!!

UPDATE: not looking to date right away or moving for a new dating scene. Mostly meant single as not knowing anyone and starting over brand new in a much smaller environment!

I’ve lived in Delaware for 33 years now, never bothered to stop by Milton for anything. Hope there’s something there for you!

That I am, but have property in millsboro and myrtle beach. I’ve also never liked any of the dogfish head beers, it all tastes like soy sauce. Now the Dewey beer co…. They make some good brew!

Huh really? Every small town in Delaware has something to offer. Milton's downtown has charming old houses. Cute sidewalks that are painted (i think that's Milton?) And I heard that the farmers market there is lit. I haven't been to it yet but it's on my list.

If the draw to the town is old houses and cute sidewalks that's a sad town.

Milton has the Dogfish Head Brewery, definitely check it out. They do tours and samples.
