What's Being Built in Delaware Right Now

Delaware's compact geography creates intense competition for skilled tradespeople, particularly project managers, superintendents, and estimators, as contractors vie for talent within a limited labor pool. The state's $1.1 billion capital budget and ongoing infrastructure investments are driving demand, yet construction employment remains relatively flat at 24,700 workers. Employers face challenges recruiting experienced professionals willing to work across Delaware's dispersed project sites, from Wilmington's urban developments to southern Delaware's growing coastal markets, while competing with higher-paying opportunities in nearby Philadelphia and Baltimore metro areas.
