Rodney Village Homes for Rent

Rodney Village in Dover, Delaware, is a small community of around 1,500 residents, located approximately 4 miles west of Dover Air Force Base and 2 miles south of downtown Dover. Originally developed in the early 1960s with ranch-style homes for military personnel, the neighborhood now features a mix of residential and commercial areas along U.S. Route 13. Housing options include ranch-style, raised ranch, and split-level homes from the 1950s to the 1970s, many with driveways, carports, and fenced-in backyards. The area is known for its quiet streets, thanks to ample off-street parking and numerous stop signs. Rodney Village offers a variety of attractions, including the Rodney Village Shopping Mall with eateries, a pharmacy, and discount stores, as well as the Doverama bowling alley and several international food markets. Residents enjoy proximity to Brecknock County Park, which features walking trails, athletic fields, and the Piccadilly Castle playground. The Kent County Recreation Center and the Akridge Scout Reservation provide additional recreational opportunities. The neighborhood is part of the highly rated Caesar Rodney School District, with students attending Fred Fifer Middle and Caesar Rodney High, both of which receive high marks. Calvary Christian Academy offers a private education option. The community is well-connected, with easy access to Delaware Route 1, leading to Wilmington and Rehoboth Beach. Public transportation is available through DART bus stops. While residents may occasionally hear aircraft from the nearby Dover Air Force Base, the flight patterns rarely affect the neighborhood directly.
