christinewhite+FollowDelaware’s retail shakeup: What’s closing next?Big changes are hitting Delaware’s shopping scene in 2026 as five major retail chains pull out of key locations. Rite Aid’s exit from beach towns is turning pharmacy runs into a headache for retirees, while Big Lots leaving Milford means fewer options for affordable basics. Family Dollar is trimming its crowded Route 13 presence, and Dover Mall is losing familiar “inline” stores as national brands move out. Even Advance Auto Parts is cutting back in New Castle County. These closures aren’t just about empty storefronts—they’re reshaping where and how we shop. How will this impact your routine? #Business #LocalBusiness #Delaware00Share
Cassandra Snyder+FollowCoyotes are getting bold in Delaware yardsCoyotes aren’t just passing through Delaware anymore—they’re showing up in broad daylight, hopping fences, and even staring down dog walkers from Wilmington to Lewes. This sudden boldness is all about mating season, which runs through March, making these animals more territorial and less afraid of people. Delaware’s “coywolves” are bigger and smarter than typical coyotes, thriving in suburban patches. With new state rules coming in 2026 to help manage their numbers, it’s more important than ever to keep pets close, secure your trash, and make noise if you spot one. Has anyone else noticed these changes in their neighborhood? #Pets #Delaware #Coyotes20Share
Mrs. Maria Shelton MD+FollowDelaware community shaken by sudden lossA tragic night in Delaware’s Oak Hill neighborhood has left many stunned: Linda Stevenson, wife of Bill Stevenson (Jill Biden’s ex-husband), was found dead in her home after a domestic dispute call. Police arrived quickly and tried life-saving measures, but she was pronounced dead at the scene. The investigation is ongoing, with no charges filed yet and an autopsy pending. It’s a tough reminder of how quickly life can change, even in familiar neighborhoods. How do you think communities can better support each other in times of crisis like this? #Relationships #Delaware #CommunitySupport14Share
Thomas Woods+FollowMy neighbor’s weed smell keeps filling my bathroomI live in Delaware and just found out the smell is not something the building will deal with since smoking weed is legal now. The problem is the smell comes through what I think is a shared bathroom duct. Some days it is so strong I feel like I’m standing in their living room while they light up. I am thinking about sliding a note under their door to let them know. I wrote one that is polite and not accusing them of anything but I’m not sure if it will come across the wrong way. Has anyone tried this before and actually gotten a good outcome? #WeedSmell #NeighborProblems #ApartmentLiving #NeedAdvice #Delaware #WeedTrends #House 116124Share
