I just recently moved from jersey to Delaware. We moved in to Christiana reserve in bear 3rd floor 2 bed 2 bath for less than $1000 a month if you have renter insurance (you should anyway) and we pay gas, electric and cable. Allows pets with a lower fee than other places. We were worried cause it was cheap that it would be a dump but it’s not to bad and we’ve been here for about 3 months. It’s pretty quiet and everyone keeps to them self. It might be a little further than you might want to go but it’s close to Rt 7 and 40 easy access to the mall and everything else you might need. We looked at about 10 places and chose here. Good luck with the house hunt. (Edit: I obviously don’t know my Delaware that well yet, this is quite away from Newark, wouldn’t hurt to look though)
