There is a goldsmith school and a school for train drivers in Mjölby. The town is a major station on the southern railway line connecting Stockholm and the southern parts of the country. The motorway E4 also passes through Mjölby.
An older version of the place name is Mölloby, from the words mylna or mölna, meaning "mill". Given the rapids of Svartån and the fertile soils of the surrounding plains, Mjölby is a natural place for a mill.
