    "Live in surronding area and you have people all trying to get through life. plenty of churches. Close to strip centers and shopping mall. Delmar split between a tax and no sale tax states, Delaware/Maryland. You can live near city living but feel you in the country. central to many attractions within 1 hour drive. "
