Milroy has no town government of its own, so Rush County runs its elections and most services, and its children attend Rush County Schools. Tap water in most of Milroy comes from the Anderson Township Regional Sewer Dist. water system, which has a clean five-year EPA record (about 22% of systems its size had a health-based violation) and a latest lead result below detection.

Water comes from Anderson Township Regional Sewer Dist. water system
The Anderson Township Regional Sewer Dist. water system supplies Milroy: about 63% of residents live in its service area. About 37% of homes are outside any mapped community water system, most likely on private wells, which EPA doesn’t regulate. It draws ground water and serves 900 people in all.
No health-based violations reported to EPA in the five years to October 2026, like 78% of the 5,327 systems serving 501–1,000 people.
The latest lead result on file, the 90th percentile of homes sampled in Jan 2022–Dec 2024, was 0.0 ppb, below the 15 ppb action level that applied. Results below detection are reported as 0, so 0 doesn’t mean no lead at any tap.
