Beat the High Cost of Living; Install an Energy-Efficient Roof

There is no doubt that Wilmington is a great city to live in — in fact, it is even named as one of the best cities in Delaware. However, being the biggest city in the state with remarkable development and advancement status, Wilmington is also among the most expensive places to live in within the state, as discussed in an article from Delaware Online:

Taxes and fees for Wilmington homeowners are high, and proposed increases will keep them among the highest in the area, according to tax rates from several nearby jurisdictions.

A Wilmington homeowner living in a house assessed at $100,000 with a combined household income of $100,000 pays an average of $5,937 a year in local taxes and fees. That total would go up to an average of $6,112 a year if property tax and utility rate increases proposed by Mayor Dennis Williams are approved, a level higher than Philadelphia and several Delaware communities.
