Discovering Hollyville's Location
Hollyville is easy to find! It's located where two roads meet: Delaware Route 24 Alternate (which is also called Sussex County Road 48) and Sussex County Road 290. This makes it a central spot for people living nearby.
What Are the "Three Sisters" Communities?
Hollyville is part of a special group called the Three Sisters communities. These are three nearby places that share a connection. The other two "sisters" are Fairmount and Hollymount. They are all close to each other in Sussex County.
Part of a Bigger Area
Even though Hollyville is a small community, it's part of a larger region. It belongs to the Salisbury, Maryland-Delaware Metropolitan Statistical Area.
