    Centered on Wilmington’s revitalized Riverfront and Market Street corridor, 19801 blends historic brick blocks with modern waterfront living along the Christina River. Expect four true seasons—warm, humid summers and crisp winters—and an urban, walkable lifestyle anchored by the Riverwalk, Tubman-Garrett Riverfront Park, and easy access to I-95, the Amtrak/SEPTA Wilmington Station, and DART buses. Locals frequent ShopRite at Christina Crossing for groceries; grab coffee at Brew HaHa! or Milk & Honey; and dine at La Fia, Big Fish Grill, Iron Hill Brewery, and the DE.CO food hall. Arts and entertainment thrive at The Grand Opera House, The Queen, Delaware Theatre Company, the Delaware Contemporary, Penn Cinema IMAX, and seasonal events like the Clifford Brown Jazz Festival. Dog-friendly patios and long riverfront walks make it easy for pet owners, while outdoor time spans biking the Jack A. Markell Trail to ballgames at Frawley Stadium and visits to the Delaware Children’s Museum. Recent Zillow Market Trends show a median rent around $1,550, with most listings $1,200–$2,200.
