New Castle County Question (suburban, commute, news)

[bluecountry]

I had a couple of questions about New Castle County for those familiar with the area.


1) Is this county rural/suburban, or both?
-If rural...how much in jeopardy is it...and really how could it be rural?
-If suburban...how much is it growing?

2) What city does this county identify with more, PHI or BAL?
-What is the split?
-Does it vary by location, if so where?
-Is it shifting to one?

3) Which sports teams does this area identify with most?
-In the NFL, Eagles or Ravens?
-In MLB, Orioles or Phillies?

Thanks.

#1 County is pretty congested and getting worse. More rural towards MD.

#2 PHI mostly, the news stations are PA-NJ area which ticks me off. I'd rather see MD news.

#3 Eagles mostly, I'm however a Ravens fan.

IMHO, New Castle County is a suburb of Philadelphia, not Baltimore. It's part of the tri-state area of SE PA, S Jersey, and N Delaware. I would even venture to say that more people commute to Philadelphia than Baltimore. It would only make sense for NCC to identify with Philadelphia.

Oh, and Go Eagles!
