Lewes is a small coastal community on the shores of Delaware Bay. Although the city’s population is only around 3,000, that number swells during the summer months when folks pour in from Washington, Baltimore, and Philadelphia to take advantage of the beautiful beaches (which permanent residents get to enjoy year-round).
Farther inland, the downtown area is a charming collective of locally-owned coffeehouses, restaurants, and boutique shops in a setting of historic storefronts. Parents will appreciate the superb local schools, and Cape Henlopen State Park to the east provides a terrific network of bike paths and nature trails to explore.
As of March 2025, the average apartment rent in Lewes, DE is $1,637 for one bedroom, $1,998 for two bedrooms, and $2,376 for three bedrooms. Apartment rent in Lewes has increased by 2.1% in the past year.
