Milford is an unincorporated community in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia, located in both East Hants Municipality and Halifax Regional Municipality in Hants County.
[1] The community is situated in the Shubenacadie Valley and includes the locality of Milford Station.
In 1857 the Nova Scotia Railway mainline from Richmond to Truro opened, passing through the community along the west bank of the Shubenacadie River, leading to the creation of the Milford Station locality within Milford.
[2] Milford is primarily a service centre for local farming communities, although given its location along Highway 102, it has a growing residential population and is exhibiting exurban characteristics.
