Our friends at technical.ly just published findings from DataFox naming Wilmington as the fifth best city for Start Ups.
Technical.ly mapped Wilmington’s innovation corridor ahead of Delaware Innovation Week.
Here's an excerpt:
DataFox cited the city’s “favorable tax climate combined with access to decision-makers,” in addition to new incubators and coworking spaces, a low cost of living, UD’s Horn Program in Entrepreneurship and proximity to the Northeast Corridor. It also noted availability of mentors and policymakers.

Late Night SEPTA Train Extended To And From Wilmington

The extended southbound train from Philadelphia will arrive in Wilmington at 12:26 a.m., and the final northbound train will leave Wilmington at 12:48 a.m., both two hours later than the current arrival and departure times.
Extending the late night train provides more access to events and entertainment. Riders now have more options to enjoy the night life, both in Wilmington and Philadelphia.
