Covington is the county seat of Tipton County, north of Millington along US-51. If you work in or around Covington, have family there, or simply like the idea of being between Covington and Memphis, you may be weighing apartments in Millington. This post explains how Millington Oaks fits that search, using only what we can confirm about our community and general geography.
Where Millington sits relative to Covington
Millington is in northern Shelby County, and Covington is farther north in Tipton County. US-51 connects the two, running past Atoka and Munford along the way. Living at 4945 Navy Rd in Millington means a Millington, Shelby County address, so things tied to your address, such as schools and local services, follow Millington and Shelby County rather than Tipton County.
We don’t publish drive times, because they depend on your exact destination, the time of day, and road work. Check a current map from Navy Road to your actual workplace or family’s home at the hour you would drive it.
