Milkwater is a small place located in the state of Arizona, in the United States. It's not a big city or a town with its own local government. Instead, Milkwater is known as a "populated place" within Apache County. This means people live there, but it's part of the larger county area rather than having its own separate city rules.
About Milkwater
Milkwater is found in Apache County, which is in the eastern part of Arizona. It sits high up, about 7,310 feet (which is about 2,228 meters) above the level of the sea. This high elevation means the area might have cooler temperatures compared to lower parts of Arizona.
Being a "populated place" means that while there are homes and people living in Milkwater, it doesn't have a mayor or a city council like a typical town. Instead, services like roads and schools are usually managed by Apache County.
