Milligan is home to Buffalo Creek, which is visible from Milligan College to Warrior Hill/Happy Valley High School.
Milligan Highway has 2 convenience stores and a Dollar General where residents can pick up essentials, with multiple grocery stores located nearby in south Johnson City or Elizabethton. Milligan is served by the West Carter County Fire Station. Also on Milligan are three small "Mom and Pop" restaurants, no fast food here. Milligan Highway was recently paved and is in good condition. Most people drive but there are occasional bikers or walkers, (no sidewalks) especially around Milligan College campus and the stores. There are 3 sizeable apartment complexes on Milligan and many single-family homes. Swadley Road is adjacent to Milligan Highway and has 4 low-income housing projects. Most homes are older but in good repair. (My house was purchased by my grandparents and is 70 years old.) = = = =
