Milton Keynes

About

Milton Keynes is a large district in Buckinghamshire, located in the South East of England. Known for its grid road system and modernist urban design, it was developed as a new town in the 1960s. The area features extensive green spaces, including parks and lakes, alongside commercial and residential zones. Its central location makes it a key transport hub, with easy access to London, Birmingham, and other major cities.

The district is home to a mix of businesses, retail centres, and cultural venues, such as the Milton Keynes Theatre and Bletchley Park. The population is diverse, with a range of housing options from urban apartments to suburban homes. Despite its planned layout, the area retains pockets of older villages that predate the new town development. Milton Keynes continues to grow, with ongoing infrastructure projects and new housing developments.
