Town in Indiana, United States
Milan ( MY-lin) is a town in Franklin and Washington townships, Ripley County, in the U.S. state of Indiana. As of the 2020 census, Milan had a population of 1,823. Milan High School won the Indiana state basketball championship against Muncie Central High School in 1954, the victory being significant as Milan was one of the smallest towns to win a state championship in the United States at that time. The 1986 film Hoosiers is based on the story of the 1954 Milan Team. While it is often claimed that Milan is the subject of a volume of poetry, titled Pop. 359, written in 1941 by Carl Wilson under the pseudonym of Tramp Starr, that book is actually about the nearby town of Moores Hill.
