Milton is a small, picturesque city in southern Wisconsin, located near Janesville and Madison, with a population of about 5,500. Established in 1837, it was once a bustling trade center due to its location along the Rock River. While agriculture played a major role in the city’s early economy, Milton now focuses on community development and quality of life. The city features several parks and trails, providing residents with ample opportunities for outdoor recreation. Milton is also known for its strong school system and family-friendly environment. With a slower pace of life, Milton remains a tight-knit community with a focus on preserving its history and rural charm. Milton’s population has grown steadily in recent years, but it still maintains a small-town feel. It’s a place where neighbors know one another, and the city is committed to fostering community events, local businesses, and green spaces.
