Delaware's directory listings currently include 463 IT service providers with a headquarters in the state. That figure sits against a national published total of 46,934 providers across all 50 states, meaning Delaware's share of the national count is modest but present across the state's main population centers.
Of the 463 Delaware providers, 121 carry a Google rating entry. The median rating among those rated providers is 4.90. That compares to a national median rating of 5.00 across 21,426 rated providers nationwide. The gap between the two medians is small, and both figures sit at the high end of the rating scale used across the directory.
Size is one area where Delaware's listings diverge more noticeably from the national pattern. The median employee count among Delaware providers is 16, while the national median employee count across all 46,934 listed providers is 9. That difference suggests the typical Delaware-based provider in this dataset tends toward a larger headcount than the typical provider nationally, though the comparison is limited to median values rather than a full distribution.
Geographically, the state's provider listings concentrate in five named cities: Wilmington, Dover, Newark, Lewes, and Middletown. These five cities represent the top city clusters identified within Delaware's 463 published providers. Wilmington leads this list, consistent with its role as the state's largest city, followed by Dover, Newark, Lewes, and Middletown rounding out the top five.
Pricing information is one area where the Delaware-specific figures are not available in this dataset, so no pricing comparison can be drawn for the state. Nationally, 1,541 providers across all 46,934 listings carry pricing information, a small fraction of the total directory. Without a Delaware-specific pricing count, no state-level pricing claim can be made here.
On a national level, the directory also tracks recent signal activity, recording 10,595 signals over a 30 day window across all 50 states. This national signals figure is not broken out by state in the data available today, so it cannot be applied specifically to Delaware's 463 providers, but it offers useful context for how active the broader directory is at any given time.
The five states with the largest provider counts nationally are California, Texas, Florida, New York, and Virginia. Delaware does not appear among these top five by volume, which is expected given the relative size of its economy and population compared to those larger states. Still, Delaware's 463 providers are spread across 792 metros counted nationwide, placing the state's listings within a national framework that spans a wide range of metro area sizes.
Taken together, the numbers describe a state directory of IT service providers that is smaller in volume than the leading states but shows a comparable median rating to the national figure and a notably higher median employee count. The concentration of listings in Wilmington, Dover, Newark, Lewes, and Middletown reflects where Delaware's IT service provider activity, as captured in these listings, is most visible. These figures represent a snapshot of the published directory as recorded this morning, reflecting only the providers currently listed under Delaware as their headquarters state.
