About Milan

Often referred to as "Bullet Town,” affectionately by residents due to the Milan Arsenal located in town, the city of Milan hosts the large manufacturing plant that creates and distributes mortar shells and grenades. In fact, the arsenal is also the largest employer in Milan. The city’s claim to fame is its position as the highest point between the Great Lakes and the Gulf of Mexico on the former Illinois Central Railroad. Residents of an apartment or home rental in Milan have access to the commercial airline services of McKellar-Sipes Regional Airport in Jackson, 12 miles south along the I-40. Jackson also provides the majority of shopping and other essential resources to Milan’s residents. Although most residents commute to Jackson or work locally at places like the Milan Arsenal, a few residents make the 1 hour and 45 minute commute into Memphis, 101 miles southwest.

Accordingly, the spirit of America’s favorite pastime still reverberates throughout the community and residents of a Milan house or apartment for rent.
