I'll be moving to start a job north of Wilmington DE in a few weeks, and I need some reccomendations on where to look for a house, Delaware or Pennsylvania.

It will be my wife, who will look for a job as a teacher once we are settled, and my 3 year old daughter, so schools are important although odds are we will put her in private school

I currently work for Garnet Valley School district in Glen Mills and I can highly recommend that area and the school district. You wouldn't need to shell out the cash for private unless you really wanted to. It's the top high school in the area and #8 in the state as I remember. I don't know what your budget is like but there is a good mix of middle class housing options in that area and a nice supply of new commercial centers/restaurant options as compared to the run down older parts of the suburbs closer to Philly.

Keep in mind, DE doesn't have sales tax so it's extra nice to be able to do your shopping in DE.

PM me if I can be of anymore assistance.

Thanks for the reply, great insight. I am meeting a realtor for several days of home finding this weekend. I've never really visited the area so it will be nice to see it in person. Most of the homes I've tagged have been in North Wilmington, Chadds ford or hockessin areas. My wife is interviewing for a teaching job in Wilmington at Freire charter school and I'll be working in the talleyville area.

I can't PM but my email is below, I'd love to ask some more questions if you don't mind, we don't have any family outside of Texas, so there are a lot of unknowns right now.
