Milford, Delaware, is along the Mispillion River about midway between the state capitol, Dover, and the beach communities of Sussex County. Conveniently located at the intersection of U.S. 113 and Route 1, Milford is within 100 miles of the cities of Wilmington, Washington, D.C., Philadelphia and Baltimore.
Once a bustling shipyard, downtown Milford is currently experiencing a revival with the development of the Mispillion Riverwalk. Historic homes, gourmet restaurants and museums are just a short walk from this waterfront greenway space and help preserve the small town’s charm.
The area surrounding downtown Milford hosts a diverse industrial and agricultural community which specializes in everything from food processing to metal fabrication.
Educational programs and various outdoor and water-related activities abound at nearby Abbott’s Mill Nature Center and Killen’s Pond State Park. In addition, Milford is only a short drive to the recreational opportunities offered by the shores and marinas of the Delaware Bay and the beaches of the Atlantic.
