| What Bridgeville is like for active adults |
| Bridgeville is a small but rapidly growing village of about 1600 people in rural Sussex County. Its location in southwestern Delaware, (on the charming and mostly undiscovered Delmarva Peninsula) has made it a popular place for active adults from the northeast looking for a milder climate and less expensive life style. Many active adult communities are coming to the area now. |
