    "Very dog friendly area, almost everyone says hi to the dogs. They pet shops almost everywhere and mobile groomers are an option too. we just don’t have a dog park that’s a little cheaper than the one in Lewes. NY has dog parks that are free which is really great. "

    "I think rehoboth May have started out as, or had recently been kind of a popular retirement area, so the population seems to to be very geriatric. There are some younger couples around town and I do see children, but not as many I am used to seeing in Berlin, MD where I lived previously. The area does seem to be safe as far as crime rates and criminal activity goes, but the traffic here is almost absurd. Outlet markets are everywhere and people come to rehoboth in swarms to shop "
