Georgetown

Georgetown lies on the Delmarva Peninsula, amid the flat, wooded lowlands of southern Delaware rather than on the Atlantic shore. Founded in 1791 as the seat of Sussex County, it remains the county’s administrative center, with the courthouse and public offices arranged around The Circle, its central green. The compact town core reflects the civic role Georgetown was created to serve, while farms, forests and coastal communities shape the wider county. Georgetown also hosts the annual Return Day celebration, a local political tradition held after elections.
