You have asked the unanswerable question.
Naturally it depends on where you come from and where you go. You might try Google maps and see if there is a live traffic report for the time of day you want. You can also check the CD profile of Wilmington which has a chart of average travel time to work. The band with the highest number of people was the 10-15 minute range, so a lot of people live close to work.
I don't commute as I am retired, but the few times I have been in Wilmington, I thought the traffic was exceptionally bad for a city its size. Basically the major arteries to work centers are College Road and Market Street. College is 6 lanes with traffic lights. Market is 4 lanes with traffic lights. Other commuter roads are Carolina Beach, Military Cutoff and Eastwood, and they all have traffic lights. There are no freeways to relieve the congestion.
