Millville is a very small coastal town (i.e. on the ocean, a bay, or inlet) located in the state of Delaware. With a population of 1,989 people and two associated neighborhoods, Millville is the 27th largest community in Delaware. Much of the housing stock in Millville was built relatively recently. The construction of new real estate can often be taken as an indication that the local Millville economy is robust, and that jobs or other amenities are attracting an influx of new residents. This seems to be the case in Millville, where the median household income is $92,961.00.

Millville home prices are not only among the most expensive in Delaware, but Millville real estate also consistently ranks among the most expensive in America.

A relatively large number of people in Millville telecommute to their jobs. Overall, about 21.55% of the workforce works from home. While this may seem like a small number, as a fraction of the total workforce it ranks among the highest in the country. These workers are often telecommuters who work in knowledge-based, white-collar professions. For example, Silicon Valley has large numbers of people who telecommute. Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.

Another notable thing is that Millville is a major vacation destination. Much of the town’s population is seasonal: many people own second homes and only live there part-time, during the vacation season. The effect on the local economy is that many of the businesses are dependent on tourist dollars, and may operate only during the high season. As the vacation season ends, Millville’s population drops significantly, such that year-round residents will notice that the city is a much quieter place to live.

In addition, Millville is home to many people who could be described as "urban sophisticates", which are people who are not only wealthy and employed in professional occupations, but highly educated to boot. Urban sophisticates have urbane tastes - whether they reside in a big or small city, a suburb, or a little town. Urban sophisticates support bookstores, quality clothing stores, enjoy luxury travel, and in big cities, they are truly the patrons of the arts, attending and supporting institutions such as opera, symphony, ballet, and theatre.

Millville is also nautical, which means that parts of it are somewhat historic and touch the ocean or tidal bodies of water, such as inlets and bays. Such areas are often places that visitors and locals go for waterfront activities or taking in the scenery.
