Georgetown, DE

united states

Georgetown is Delaware's Sussex County seat, sitting about 20 miles inland from the coast where several key routes meet. US Route 9 runs east-west through town, connecting to beach areas like Rehoboth, while Route 18 heads north-south. Most visitors arrive via US Route 113, the main coastal highway linking to Wilmington and I-95. The surrounding farmland creates wide-open views across corn and soybean fields. The 1839 Greek Revival courthouse with its distinctive white columns remains the town's most recognizable landmark.
