    PEOPLE LOVE LIVING HERE
    Spontaneous discussions about how great Vermont is happen every day, in line at the coffee shop or in the elevator at work. Our universities, artists, musicians, and restaurants prove it's not necessary to live in a big city to be socially engaged. Interesting people, challenging work, and a fun culture—it's all here, and locals know it and appreciate it.
    Why Choose Vermont?
  • Brattleboro view up river from Hinsdale wire right of way.

    Environmentally friendly. Safe. Socially responsible. Vermonters care about their world. We love our safe neighborhoods, our neighborliness, and our reputation for creative, independent thinking. We'll welcome you with open arms and a warm smile; we wouldn't have it any other way.
    Why Choose Vermont?

    Your U.S. Senator chats with you while you're in line at the local hardware store. The governor drives a race car at the local speedway. And everyone here knows someone who knows someone ... making networking and getting to talk to the right people easy. People here want to help; it's easy to feel connected.
    Why Choose Vermont?
