Arden, DE Real Estate

Arden is a village in New Castle County, Delaware, in the United States. According to 2006 Census Bureau estimates, the population of the village is 484. [1]

Arden was founded in 1900 by sculptor Frank Stephens and architect Will Price, followers of both Henry George 's Single tax and William Morris ™s Arts and Crafts principles. The Single Tax movement, popular in the U.S. in the 1890s, believed that the best way to raise government money was by a single tax on land only. The tax would be the same whether the land was improved or not. William Morris, an Englishman, rebelled against modern cities and industry. He advocated a return to craft production, good design, and village life.

By law, land in Arden cannot be sold, instead it is leased for 99 years. People were free to improve it as they chose ” the land tax would not increase because of improvements. At first, Arden was a summer community. People lived the simple life in tents or rustic dwellings. By 1909, all the land had been leased. There were 115 leaseholders and 50 houses, but only 50 year-round residents.
