Holly Knoll is a small, quiet place located in New Castle County, Delaware, in the United States. It's not a city or a town with its own government. Instead, it's what we call an unincorporated community. This means it's a group of homes and businesses that are part of a larger county, not a separate town.

Where is Holly Knoll?

Holly Knoll is found in the northern part of Delaware. It is located southwest of where two roads meet: Delaware Route 41 and Valley Road. This area is close to a larger community called Hockessin.

What is an Unincorporated Community?

An unincorporated community like Holly Knoll doesn't have its own local government, like a mayor or city council. Instead, it is governed directly by the county. For Holly Knoll, that means New Castle County handles services like roads and public safety.
