The City of Delaware has unveiled a new Community Profile, a data-rich guide designed to showcase the city’s strengths, growth, and opportunities. The profile brings together information for entrepreneurs, site selectors, investors, and residents who want a deeper look at Delaware’s economic landscape.
A One-Stop Resource
The report covers a wide range of topics, starting with an introduction to Delaware’s unique character and advantages under the section “Discover Delaware.” From there, it dives into measurable growth in population, infrastructure, and business activity.
Consumer spending patterns and retail potential are highlighted alongside a detailed look at the business environment and employment base, including key industries and workforce trends. The profile also explores housing availability, demographic projections, and labor shed analysis showing where Delaware’s workforce lives and commutes from.
Education, Real Estate, and Quality of Life
The profile points to the strength of Delaware’s schools, higher education partners, and workforce training programs as essential assets. A retail real estate summary outlines high-traffic corridors and prime commercial locations, while a housing snapshot shows residential trends.
Community events and neighborhood profiles add a quality-of-life layer, painting Delaware as a city that is both attractive to residents and welcoming to visitors.
A Message from the City
“Delaware’s strong growth, skilled workforce, and welcoming business climate make it one of the most attractive communities in Central Ohio,” said Nic Langford, Economic Development Director. “This Community Profile provides the facts and context that decision-makers need when considering Delaware as the place to invest, live, and work.”
