List of hundreds of Delaware

Hundreds in Delaware are unincorporated subdivisions of counties, equivalent to townships in some other states. They were once used as a basis for representation in the Delaware General Assembly.

While their names still appear on all real estate transactions, they currently have no use except for non-renewable rental agreements for 120 days or less for dwellings located in Broadkill Hundred, Lewes-Rehoboth Hundred, Indian River Hundred and Baltimore Hundred, which are not subject to the Delaware Landlord-Tenant Code.^[1] The divisions come from the times when Delaware and Maryland were colonial holdings of England. While Delaware retains the use of "hundreds," the origin of most place names in both states trace back to the times of British rule.
