Sussex County Latino Community
Sussex County Latinos are the fastest growing population group in America. In Delaware, they comprise almost 10% of the population and in Georgetown – the county seat – that number jumps to 39.5%. Whether they are multi-generational Americans or new arrivals, they never lose sight of the American Dream of educational, economic, and asset building opportunities for themselves and their families.
