Newport, DE

united states

Newport is a small Delaware city of 900 people in New Castle County, just south of Wilmington along the Christina River. Reach it via I-95 or Route 141 from the north. Most traffic involves short commutes to Wilmington, 8 miles northeast, though I-95 brings some long-distance travelers through the area. The community sits in an area first settled by Swedish colonists in the 1600s.
