Pike Creek
Valley Homes Bus Tour
The Pike Creek Valley encompasses the area from Kirkwood Highway (Route 2) up to the Northstar area, roughly between Limestone Road (DE 7) and Polly Drummond Hill Road. It's about six square miles.
In 2007, Money Magazine ranked the Pike Creek Valley the 79th Best Place to Live in the United States. Predominantly residential, it includes Carousel Park, overseen by New Castle County, and a riding center. Many of its housing complexes were built during the 1970s and 80s. Other landmarks include All Saints Cemetery, Ebenezer Methodist Church and Faith Baptist Church. Like other areas of northern New Castle County, Pike Creek residents have median incomes above the state average, unemployment rates significantly below the state average and college graduation rates above the state average.
