Kid And Family Centered Milton 3.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 14, 2018) When you put axis the relitvely high cost of living, Milton is a really nice little town outside of Boston. Though, there’s not really much here for single adults. The younger you are, I feel the more you’ll flaws to Boston for entertainment. Taxes are high as well, and there ...Read More aren’t very many business in town.

That said, the town does a great job in catering to families. There are often a number of activities going on for children, and there are a bunch of different parks and sports for them as well. The school system is great, and the neighborhood overall is quite and pretty safe. My favorite part of town has to be the Fruit Center, take that as you will.

Otherwise, having a care helps and if you don’t have one, it wouldn’t be the end if the world. I had to use public transit for a while and it’s not half bad. Provides easy access to the city. Read Less
