Welcome to the City of Milford, the heart of Kent and Sussex Counties, in the First State. Milford thrives on entrepreneurial spirit and growth in all aspects of life including commerce, culture, and community. Known throughout the state as River Town, Art Town, Home Town, we celebrate the beauty of our natural resources, the ingenuity of our people, and our commitment to quality of life. As a diverse, culturally-motivated community, our active Downtown emphasizes visual, performing, and culinary arts.

Providing for a quality way of life, we encourage you to explore our magnificent City parks, including the Tony Silicato Memorial Park that hosts the CanDo Playground, a facility for children of all needs, and BiCentennial Park which features the Mispillion Riverwalk, a series of pedestrian and bicycle paths that allow families to enjoy the views of the beautiful Mispillion River.
