Dover is the capital of Delaware and the seat of Kent County, a small city where state government, Dover Air Force Base and healthcare provide much of the local employment. The air base is one of the largest aerial ports in the country, home to giant C-5 and C-17 cargo aircraft, and Delaware State University, a historically Black university, adds students, research and athletics. The historic Green, laid out in the eighteenth century, is where Delaware ratified the Constitution in 1787, making it the first state.
Dover sits in the middle of Delaware, about 90 minutes from Philadelphia and Baltimore and around two hours from Washington by car. Delaware Airpark, just north of the city, makes private flights convenient for government business, contractors visiting the air base and fans arriving for race weekends at Dover Motor Speedway. Visitors come for the Air Mobility Command Museum, the casino and racing at Bally’s Dover, historic sites around the Green and birding at Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge along the Delaware Bay.
