Updated March 2026 · Southern Plan Finder — Licensed Insurance Agency · (877) 224-8539

Milton is the county seat of Santa Rosa County — a small historic city on the Blackwater River that serves as the governmental and commercial center for a county that has grown rapidly in its unincorporated communities (Pace, Navarre, Gulf Breeze) while the incorporated city itself has remained relatively compact.

Naval Air Station Whiting Field, located a few miles north of Milton, is the Navy's primary pilot training base and one of the busiest airfields in the world by number of operations. Its presence adds a significant military population to the county, though many of those families choose to live in Navarre or Gulf Breeze rather than in Milton proper.
