When Will Milton Georgia, North Of Alpharetta, Get - 12/16/2009
The City Of Milton Was Once Part Of The City Of Alpharetta And Is Now Its Own Official City. The Problem Is, Google And Other Sites Do Not Recognize Milton As Its Own Area Of North Atlanta GA. For Example, I Was Willing And Able, As A Realtor In Milton, To Post This To Milton, But There Is No Such Catagory.

Oh Well, I Am Sure It Will Take Time And Be Sure, This Area Of Milton Is WONDERFUL!!! Estate Filled, Golf Course Estates, And New Homes And Communities Tucked Between Lovely Horse Farms And New Shops And Country Stores. Milton Georgia Is A Great Place To Live, Work And Play!
