About Wilmington, DE.
Wilmington, Delaware, is by far the largest and most populated city in the state. Though the town itself has a population that peaked in the 1940s at about 110,000 to stabilize at around 70,000 in recent decades, the surrounding Wilmington Metropolitan Division has a population of nearly 720,000. And combining the Delaware Valley area, there are approximately 7,180,000 people in the region.
As a result, Wilmington has become something of a cultural center for the area and an important economic giant. Initially formed by the Lenape Native American tribe (and settled by Dutch immigrants in the 1600s), the site has the same rich history familiar with much of the United States' eastern coast. It remains a critical commerce area for this bustling state.
