Some of the recognizable landmarks in Millsmont aside from Mills College is Mills Hoagie Shop.

Lord's Ice Cream is also located there, as well as several other restaurants such as Weang Ping Thai.

Millsmont is an area with many long term residents. Although there were many foreclosures in Millsmont in recent years, it remains an area that is sought out for single people and small family's who are typically purchasing their first home. The feel is similar to Maxwell Park, although there is more traffic because of the closer proximity to main streets.
