Welcome to Milton

Just north of Janesville, Milton offers a quiet, close-knit small-town feel with easy access to everything Rock County has to offer. The city is home to the Milton House Museum, a National Historic Landmark and documented stop on the Underground Railroad.

Merchant Row and the downtown square are home to a classic supper club, local pubs, cafes, and boutiques, and Red Hawks game nights bring the whole community together.

Milton is a great fit for buyers who want a little more space and a strong sense of community, with a short drive to Janesville shopping and I‑39/90. Lake Koshkonong, one of the largest lakes in southern Wisconsin, is just minutes away for boating and fishing. You'll find charming older homes, newer subdivisions, and country properties just outside city limits.
