The heart of Delaware County

She says, "Everybody fits into this town. It doesn't matter who you are, what you believe or who you vote for. Everyone is welcome."

Along with these shops, there’s a Trader Joe's for grocery shopping and dozens of local restaurants that line State Street, providing a multicultural dining experience.
