Located in Fulton County

Are convieniences important to you? Do you still yearn for that old rustic charm? If so, you will be impressed with what the city of Milton has to offer! Atlanta is consistently ranked one of the top cities in the U.S. for Americans today, and Milton is one of the hottest markets in Atlanta for residential real estate with an equestrian flair. Excellent schools, shopping, and access to jobs combined with plenty of green space and big skies have made Milton the premiere location in Atlanta today.

The City of Milton, incorporated on Dec. 1, 2006, is a community of more than 20,000 residents spread out over 23,000 acres in north Fulton County with easy access to the big-city amenities of nearby Atlanta. The area is double the physical size of the city of Alpharetta with half its population.

Milton was not named for any of its historic communities, but rather because northern Fulton County (generally north of the Chattahoochee River) is almost entirely the former Milton County. Now-obscure communities within Milton's city limits include Birmingham, Field's Cross Roads, and others.

With the ever busy Roswell and Alpharetta within a stones throw, Milton, while progressive, takes on a different air. It is not uncommon to see properties ranging in size from 2 to 50 plus acres. The Equestrian industry is alive and well here and Wills Park in nearby Alpharetta is utilized yearly for related functions.

Milton currently takes claim to 8,429 housing units with a median family income of right at $100,000.00. An overwhelming 86% of our area is zoned various residential with the remaing 14% focused on commercial.
