Milaca, MN Home for Rent

Milaca is a small city of about 3,000 people along the banks of the Rum River. “We have a small-town feel and a proud community,” says Milaca city manager Tammy Pfaff. Residents choose the community for its school system and abundant outdoor recreation along the river and at city parks. Two major thoroughfares, U.S. Highway 169 and Minnesota Highway 23, meet in Milaca, which makes the area attractive to commuters and business owners looking for a central location in the region. The Milaca Public School District serves roughly 1,600 students at its single campus. Milaca Elementary School receives a B-minus grade from Niche, while Milaca High School receives a B. High schoolers have the opportunity to earn college credit and career experience through dual enrollment at Pine Technical and Community College, where students can take classes in fields like nursing, early childhood education and business. Milaca has a median price of $300,000, lower than the Princeton median of about $350,000. Home styles range from original early 20th-century farmhouses to New Traditional builds in new subdivisions. “We have several new housing developments in the works and homes sell fast,” Pfaff says.
