Selling Your Home in Milton, PA
Milton sits on the West Branch of the Susquehanna River in Northumberland County, bordered by Turbot Township, with Routes 254, 405 and 642 running through town and the I-80 and Route 147 interchange just outside the borough. It’s about 30 miles downriver from Williamsport and 50 miles north of Harrisburg. Settled in 1770, Milton grew into a busy manufacturing town and still has that working-town character.
A town that turns out for the Harvest Festival
Every September, Milton spends a full week on its Harvest Festival — a big parade, the Tomato Bowl football game, a pumpkin roll, craft fairs, concerts and a pet parade. It’s been a hometown tradition for decades. At the end of Mahoning Street, Milton State Park fills Montgomery Island with ballfields, picnic areas, a riverside trail and good fishing, and kayakers stop there on their way down the river. Students attend the Milton Area School District.
