Half a star is too high. 0.5 rating By Anonymous ( Mar 24, 2021) Where to begin? Traffic is horrific and the locals are some of the worst drivers I have ever seen. Blocking the intersection at the local Wawa is common and with traffic leaving the poultry plant makes entering Millsboro a nightmare. Avoid that town at rush hour to the best of ...Read More your ability. Rentals are overpriced and the area is not pet friendly at all. I was so relieved to leave the area. Drugs are bad in that area. I would not live there at all. When I mention traffic; I mean all year, even in the winter. Lower slower Delaware means leaving the area in a hurry. Read Less
