Milton is known as a wonderful location for families and businesses to grow. It has invested in the infrastructure to support residential and commercial growth in its Town Core and already supports a growing residential and commercial community. Milton grew in the last census and is now ranked as the 8th largest community in Vermont. It is host to many exciting businesses and employers. Milton’s vision of the future supports dense residential and commercial development in its Town Core with a comfortable mix of amenities and housing choices for all age groups. It is the Town’s intention to grow in such a fashion that it has a mix of both residential and commercial properties. This mix will support the growth needed to maintain the services the residents and businesses have come to expect while keeping the tax burden stable.
