Georgetown is a charming, walkable county seat with a historic downtown, local eateries and breweries, weekly markets, and easy access to parks and the Delaware beaches—quiet and low‑stress but with enough local flavor to enjoy off days during multi‑week contracts. Practical day‑to‑day conveniences and short commutes around Sussex County make staying comfortable and predictable.
Within easy drives are Dover (≈30 miles) for museums, dining and events, and Rehoboth Beach (≈12 miles) for sandy beaches, a lively boardwalk and seasonal nightlife.
