Milton, Lower-tier municipality in Halton Region, Ontario, Canada.

Milton spans across the western section of the Greater Toronto Area, offering residential neighborhoods and industrial zones at an elevation of 195 meters.

The settlement emerged in 1818 when Jasper Martin constructed a grist mill along Sixteen Mile Creek, establishing the foundation for the present-day municipality.

Multiple community centers throughout Milton present year-round programs, including the Milton Fall Fair and the annual Steam-Era exhibition highlighting local traditions.

The Milton line operated by GO Transit provides regular train and bus services connecting residents to downtown Toronto through a 54-kilometer transportation corridor.

Between 2001 and 2011, Milton recorded the highest population growth rate among all Canadian municipalities, expanding by over 71 percent in just five years.
