The town of Milford is a thriving community of over 25,000 residents, conveniently located along I-495, with easy access to Boston, Worcester, and Providence over major highways. It is surrounded by the communities of Hopedale, Upton, Hopkinton, Holliston, Medway, Bellingham, and Mendon.

Milford offers many advantages to residents and visitors alike; an education system with modern facilities and excellent curriculum offerings, newly constructed/rehabilitated municipal buildings, playing fields and parks for active and passive recreation, major shopping malls, a revitalized downtown, an active cultural center, a regional hospital, and a variety of restaurants and hotels.

Sports and arts are both an integral part of the community fabric; Milford has a reputation for developing excellent musicians and athletes. Political awareness is encouraged early, and as a result, many Milford residents have embraced careers in public service, both at the local and the state level. Milford also proudly acknowledges native son Dr. Joseph E. Murray, who pioneered in the area of organ transplants. In 1990, Dr. Murray was the recipient of the Nobel Prize for medicine.

Milford is known the world over for its unique pink granite, discovered in the 1870's and quarried for many years thereafter. Milford pink granite continues to grace the exteriors of museums, government buildings, monuments and railroad stations in Boston, New York, Washington, D.C., and Paris, France.
