Milan, Illinois
Milan (/ˈmaɪlɪn/ MY-lin) is a village in Rock Island County, Illinois, United States. The population was 5,097 at the time of the 2020 census; down from 5,099 at the 2010 census.
The village is located adjacent to the Quad Cities of Illinois and Iowa.
The village is on the Rock River in northwest Illinois, about 4 miles upstream of its outlet to the Mississippi. The village is the site of the south campsites which comprised the Sauk and Fox village of Saukenuk, once the second-largest Native American inhabitation in North America.
Originally platted along the right-of-way for the Hennepin Canal, in 1837, the village site was called in land speculation papers "Hampton" (not the town in Illinois, approximately 13 miles north-northeast, on the Mississippi River—see Hampton, Illinois for more). "Hampton's" land speculators, George Camden and Franklin Vandruff, sold land along the Rock River, along a north-west flowing creek, which was re-routed north into the Rock's main channel. Along Mill Creek, the industries of wool-carding and (river clamshell) "pearl" button-making helped rename the village by 1841 as Camden Mills.
The village has "sister cities" in Missouri, Tennessee, and Michigan.
According to the 2010 census, Milan has a total area of 6.463 square miles (16.74 km2), of which 5.87 square miles (15.20 km2) (or 90.82%) is land and 0.593 square miles (1.54 km2) (or 9.18%) is water.
As of the census of 2000, there were 5,348 people, 2,310 households, and 1,457 families residing in the village. The population density was 965.9 inhabitants per square mile (372.9/km2). There were 2,378 housing units at an average density of 429.5 per square mile (165.8/km2). The racial makeup of the village was 92.46% White, 4.32% African American, 0.22% Native American, 0.45% Asian, 0.04% Pacific Islander, 1.08% from other races, and 1.42% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 2.92% of the population.
There were 2,310 households, out of which 28.5% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 45.7% were married couples living together, 13.3% had a female householder with no husband present, and 36.9% were non-families. 31.1% of all households were made up of individuals, and 13.5% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 2.31 and the average family size was 2.88.
