I have lived in the Milton-Pace area for 14 years now. Thanks to my husband’s military career, we have come and gone multiple times throughout the last 10 years. No matter where we go, this is home. We have been back for almost five years now, and I still find myself amazed that we live here. This area is so rich in natural resources, history, and fun!
Whether you are new to the area or have been here for a while, take a few minutes to explore just a few of the advantages of living in Milton and Pace!
