Milton, WA

Milton is a small city split between northern Pierce County and southern King County, tucked into the south Puget Sound suburbs between Tacoma, Federal Way, and Fife. Most of the city, including the Pierce County portion, is served by Fife Public Schools. Milton's geography gives it a slightly in-between feel: close to regional highways, warehouses, and commuting routes, but still residential in scale. It is not a destination town so much as a practical, established community on the edge of several larger places.
