About Milnor

Tucked into southeastern North Dakota, Milnor is a quiet, close-knit community in Sargent County with a population of around 600. The town got its start in the 1880s when the Northern Pacific railroad pushed through the prairie, prompting early settlers to haul entire buildings across the fields by wagon to set up shop along the new tracks. That frontier hustle quickly turned Milnor into a steady home for local farm families and tradespeople.
