Kent County is a predominantly agricultural area steeped in rich maritime history, celebrating events such as the Chestertown Tea Party and the Sultana Downrigging Weekend. To live in Kent County is to appreciate a slower pace, and residents enjoy the small-town lifestyle of Chestertown, home to Washington College, and proximity to Rock Hall, known as the "Rockfish Capital of the World" or Betterton Beach for a day of relaxing by the water. You’ll also find vineyards, shopping, waterfront dining, art galleries, live theater, and music within this charming County. Hunting Farms, historic downtown homes, waterfront properties, and vacation homes are all part of Kent County life.
