Millwood is a small community in Ware County, Georgia, in the United States. It's not a city or town with its own government. Instead, it's known as an "unincorporated community."

It's also a "census-designated place" (CDP). This means the government counts the people living there for official records, even though it doesn't have its own city hall. Millwood is located west of a larger city called Waycross. In 2020, only 72 people lived there.

A Look Back at Millwood's History

Millwood got its first post office in 1887. This was an important step for the community. It meant people could send and receive mail easily.

Later, in 1905, the Georgia General Assembly decided to make Millwood an official town. This gave it a "municipal charter," which is like a special rulebook for how a town should be run. However, just four years later, in 1909, this charter was taken away. Millwood went back to being an unincorporated community.
