DELAWARE, OHIO USA

Welcome to Delaware, a city and county in the heart of Central Ohio (approximately 15 miles north of Columbus), in one of the most dynamic regions of the Midwest.

Delaware County is the fastest growing county in the state. It has increased it's population by 37.8 percent since the 1990 Census. "Using the 1990 Census data, American Demographics Inc., identified 20 of the fastest-growing, wealthiest and most educated areas of the country." Delaware County was 14th on the list.

But like the fine racing standardbreds in the world-famous "Little Brown Jug", Delaware has kept its head while quickening the pace. Citizens, community leaders and consultants are working together to guide the development of new residential areas and expanded community services, while maintaining Delaware's distinctive character.

The Delaware lifestyle includes the cultural offerings of a national liberal arts university, an unusual variety of recreational opportunities and the excitement of "The Little Brown Jug." One of the jewels in the Triple Crown of Grand Circuit harness racing, "The Jug" brings thousands of visitors to Delaware each fall.
