With a more affordable cost of living than Boston and small-town charm for residents, the town of Milford has welcomed an influx of residents seeking more home and more land with less of the city noise.
“15 to 18 years ago, nobody ever thought about coming to Milford,” said Dave Consigli, President and CEO of Century 21 The Real Estate Group, who has been selling homes in the area for 25 years. “Now, people are looking for these smaller communities where the population isn’t so dense, and it gives them more space to bring their families up in schools that aren’t so crowded.”
Milford may be a small town, but the abundance of parks, shopping, restaurants, and other attractions make it a desirable place to live.

Homes from the rural north to the central town
The closer homes are to Milford’s town center, the closer they are to each other. Victorian, colonial, and Cape Cod style homes cluster together on the downtown residential streets, while the rural northern pockets primarily feature large Colonials separated by trees and set back behind grand, well-kept lawns. Sidewalks are common and well-maintained throughout the neighborhood, and streetlights keep the paths illuminated after dark. While one of the appeals of Milford, like most exurban areas, is the relative affordability of housing compared to the major metro areas, some of the more grandiose homes can still command a steep price. Homes in Milford typically run between $550,000 for a 3-bedroom home, and $670,000 for a 4-bedroom home.
Milford High School has over 1200 students.

Milford High School, ranked the 17th-best public high school in Worcester County, has a B-plus rating from Niche.
Morning strolls are essential for Milford's locals.
Charles River trails connect parks and towns
Neighborhood parks are common in the town of Milford. Hopedale Park, on the banks of Hopedale Pond, includes walking trails, basketball courts, and playgrounds. Fino Field Park includes a public swimming pool and baseball fields on the banks of the Charles River. The Charles River Bike Trails connect the heart of Milford with a network of mountain bike trails north of the town, and run through Louisa Lake Park, where visitors can enjoy an afternoon at the picnic tables.
Shaws is another grocery chain in Milford.
A taste of Brazil at Padaria bakery
Milford’s small-town charm is due in part to the local shops and restaurants throughout the town that reflect the culture. The town has a robust Brazilian community, and the Padaria Brasil Bakery is a popular gathering place serving sweet and savory pastries, coffee and fresh juice. Gene's Variety store, at the edge of Prospect Heights Park, has deli sandwiches, fresh soups, pasta and pies as well as grocery staples for convenience. More extensive shopping can be done at Shaw’s, in the heart of the town, or at the Milford Plaza shopping center, which includes a TJ Maxx, Lowe’s, Kohl’s department store and more.
A symphony of community
Milford residents maintain ties to their community by volunteering and organizing events to bring residents together. Every Spring the town holds the Celebrate Milford festival, which draws 15,000 visitors each year. The event includes inflatable castles, live music, a beer tent, craft vendors, and more. The proceeds from the festival go toward scholarships, youth initiatives and community beautification projects. The Claflin Hill Symphony holds concerts showcasing everything from classical music to Latin salsa, and is a popular attraction for Milford residents. For rainy days, families can head to the Pinz Bowling Alley, which also includes an arcade, restaurant, and full bar.

Metro areas within an hour in any direction
The town of Milford is connected to Framingham to the north by two bus routes operated by the MetroWest Regional Transit Authority. The Route 6 bus connects downtown Framingham to the Milford Crossing shopping center, while the Route 14 bus connects the Milford Crossing stop to the rest of the town. Interstate 495 runs along the eastern boundary of the town and connects residents north to Interstate 90 and then to Boston 40 miles to the northeast, which translates to about an hour’s drive. Residents can also commute to Providence, RI, which is 28 miles to the south and will take residents less than an hour to drive, and Worcester, which is 22 miles northwest and will take travelers around 45 minutes. The Milford Regional Medical Center, a full-service nonprofit hospital, provides care to residents.
