Housing Median Monthly Rent ($), by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Delaware

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Northern Delaware, particularly the Wilmington metro area and its suburban zip codes, commands the highest median monthly rents in the state, with several zip codes reaching $1,750–$2,500, reflecting proximity to Philadelphia's employment market. A stark north-south gradient is evident, as central and southern Delaware zip codes generally fall into the $750–$1,250 range, with pockets near the southern tip dropping below $750. Coastal zip codes along the eastern shore, especially in the Rehoboth Beach area, break this pattern with notably elevated rents compared to their inland neighbors at similar latitudes.
