Worst places to live in Miami, Florida - • Top 10 Reasons NOT to ...
What's it like living in Vermont? Well for starters, it's the 2nd smallest state by population, but it's also one of the safest states with many of the Top 10 Best Small Towns to Live in America! Sure, it does get cold with tons of snow in the Winter, but that also means world class skiing, and the gorgeous Autumn colors MORE than make up for it.
It's actually been the #1 most moved to state in the USA since 2017, mainly due to the BEAUTIFUL nature, incredible community, and the fact that Burlington is one of the best cities for both young professionals and families, with a great college town atmosphere and tons of good-paying jobs.
So why should you live in Vermont over New Hampshire, Maine, Montana, Idaho, Utah, Wyoming, and other mountain states? Well, because it make just be the BEST State to live in the USA!
Thanks for watching From Here to There! This is one of my top ten videos where we explain things about the world, it's history, and geography, starting with the different states, cities, and towns in the United States. Find out the worst and best places to live in 2020!

A video on Ohio would be nice. Pros and cons
What’s worst state to move too please :D
Yes I would love that
@@charmyx8944 sweet home Alabama
Maybe New Hampshire
Born and raised, never left , never will.
What a blessing
Same.
I’d love to move there but I do need my sun. Is there a decent mixture of sunny and cloudy days or do you have months on end that are overcast?
@Claudia Macias I've lived here 20 years, you'll be fine. Especially in a place like Burlington which is slightly more diverse than the rest of the state. People don't use the term "flatlander" maliciously, it's kind of a joke tbh. The only place I'd consider avoiding is Rutland area since the heroin epidemic is still big over there (and some of the poor rural places in general). It's unfortunate but as the video said, violent crime is almost non-existent so no need to worry about that, just some druggies.
You're very lucky to live in Vermont...
I'm from Arizona and tired of Arizona...
Just moved away from Vermont (I moved there for school in 2020, then back to Washington a month ago). I can definitely back up what others are saying: Vermont has a shortage of decent, available homes right now, and people moving from out of state or rich people buying up houses for winter homes aren't helping. An interesting note though: Vermont was very affordable for me, and rent seemed very cheap everywhere, but that's because I'm from Seattle. I wouldn't be able to get an apartment here for what my apartment in southern VT was. However, wages are also more where I am, and so even though it might be cheap for you to move out of state, it isn't cheap for native Vermonters.
Personally, I couldn't stand the cold or isolation. But that's my personal thing.
Southern Vermont is much less expensive compared to the Central Vermont area like Montpelier, Waterbury and Burlington
@@zen-kami1288 Crappiest state in the Union! Taxes, Oh, you have a full winter of overcast and snow! Roads suck, it's a bastion of garbage!
I live in Bennington, I was nearly homeless because I couldn’t find a place. I could afford one I just couldn’t find one
@@jefferyyoder9785 so angry. Get help
@@Metalmirq I did. I left that welfare state!
Let me assure you that Vermont still has well under a million people. So not "EVERYONE" is moving to Vermont.
It's a joke obviously.
Yes please, move to Vermont! Our housing crisis would love to be exacerbated by out of staters driving up housing prices (and sucking up all the overpriced apartments) so natives have to continue to leave the state. Even better if you're a rich old dude who'll contribute zero to the local community yet scream about how much the state needs to change so it can be like the hellholes they left.
The “rich old dude” you’re referring to will be paying over 2% in property taxes - most of which will go towards keeping Vermont schools ranked among the best in the country. This does not benefit “rich old dude” nearly as much as it benefits children of natives.
@@joshschrader4732 "rich old dudes" that put their land in current use. Does that make you feel better?
@@joshschrader4732 Good, they're paying their fair share and contributing to a broken and continually unsustainable state economy that will eventually force those children to move to another state because they simply can't afford to live here. Tell me more, though, about how $1800 a month apartments are affordable for high school kids straight out of school and getting their first jobs.
You nailed it!
@@thenedain I hear you Steve but let me tell you abt my mountain town in NC where the housing situation is worse and the schools are much, much worse. At least VT children have the luxury of one of the best public school systems in the country- what their parents choose to do with it is up to them.
Guys I've been here for more than 10 years, you gotta enjoy doing outdoor activities here or else your not going to like it at all
Living in Vermont almost 17 years. Wow! Didn't know so many positive stuff about our Vermont. We love VT very much.
Have you always been there? What was your reason of moving there if you didn't always live there.
Ahh yes, everyone is moving to Vermont. No wonder the population is decreasing every year. Vermont features a high cost of living, high taxes, high winter costs, and limited job opportunities, not to mention an egregiously overbearing vehicle inspection that occurs yearly which if you're broke you are flat out screwed. This state I once called home for so long is a beautiful place to visit but a horrendous place to live and this video creator clearly does not understand the underlying problems with trying to make a life work in it. This video comes off as stock footage and wikipedia statistics rather than a firsthand account of life in Vermont.
Now this won't be the case for everyone, especially if you managed to land what few career jobs there are or are retiring. However, if this is not you, then please save yourself from the trouble. All of the positives of Vermont will amount to absolutely nothing unless you're well enough off. Please heed my warning.

We get it. It's a good argument to keep us "flatlanders" out of your state, right? Keep it "untouched" by us "outsiders"?? Good God. I guess I totally misjudged most Vermont residents. Who sounds racist now? But, that's right, the other posts above did say that most of Vermont is racist. And I'm white btw.
@@jeffreycenga6724 What in god’s name are you talking about? This person said nothing about race. If you take 5 minutes and talk to any local all of the issues described here will be immediately apparent. Housing is scarce and unaffordable for locals, the majority of jobs are not high paying, there’s a major opioid epidemic ravaging towns. But go ahead, say Vermonters are racist because they mention life isn’t pure bliss here and aren’t jumping for joy at their town populations exploding 10X overnight and the already unaffordable house prices exponentially increasing.
@@jeffreycenga6724 Hahaha
Sorriest damn state I ever lived in! Even Mississippi has a better GDP! Taxes, roads were like 3rd world dirt road! Moved their in 2019 and got the heck outta there in 2020! Dumb N Dumber!
Poor choice to move to Vermont! Horrible taxes, electric rates.
They do leave especially the youth,. It's also become too far politically left when Natives are far more conservative.
I wouldn't recommend it.
True. I would encourage conservatives to move here and the communists to leave.
Yes! Love this comment
@@donttreadonme3419 No thanks. Keep your Trumpism and hatefulness out of VT.
@@jeezumcrow8655 you must be a communist.
@@jeezumcrow8655 yeah keep out the productive poeple and keep the good for nothings. That's why communism/ socialism never worked.
Very rare to find any new homes or ranch style homes in Vermont. Most homes are old as dirt and property taxes are crazy high! Health insurance is costly and don't forget heating costs.
Yeah property taxes are quite high, but homes outside of Burlington or the ski towns are pretty cheap
@@FromHeretoThere $200,000 or lower is not too bad. If you want property your going to get up there in the $500,000 range and then more taxes. New Hampshire even worse!
@@FromHeretoThere no they are not cheaper 🤣
@@FromHeretoThere Sure, but good luck finding jobs that will actually pay enough for you to live in those small towns without having to drive.
Food, housing, childcare expenses exorbitant too
The only reason for the influx in 2020 was that Vermont had the highest vaccination rate and lowest covid infections. Vermont is anything but affordable, let alone buying local which is much more expensive. State tax, housing crisis, and laughable to say that most Vermonters are making "more than enough" to sustain living here. In fact, all I keep reading about in the local articles is the struggle to attract and retain young people and families and the crisis it poses for the retired and aging population (oldest state here) as in median age. A great place to live, yes if you're wealthy, retired AND enjoy brutal winters. Let's not forget the ballooning opioid and mental health crisis too....
Highest vaccination rate...in 2020? So zero?
Born,raised and have been able to live in Florida, California, and Oregon for a bit. I moved back to Vermont because I love it. It is nearly impossible for an honest hard working person to survive by themselves in or near Burlington area because it is so expensive. Its It's ridiculous. After this winter my plan is to camp out all summer, just to save enough to live indoors next winter. I've had to do it in the past. Theres a saying amongst the carpenter's here, which I am one, I can build these big beautiful houses, just cant afford to live in 'em. Sad but true
@@bensnide5846 It's a Progressive POS!
@@jefferyyoder9785 yessir... one of those state's where they think you dont deserve a trophy for first place, but one fer showing up.
Preach preach. This video hides everything wrong and I want to know where they get their numbers
Hey are you mangotango you kinda sound like him
Don't move here.
We used to have a bumper sticker that said don't jersey vt.
So don't. We have gangs now, since everyone is moving here.
I have my hunting permit for out of staters
You should have a sticker for the New Yorkers. They're destroying your state faster than any other transplants, including Mass. Atleast Jersey has a good educational system. Did you hear him.
How about we compare Vermont to California when it comes to cost and taxes. Is Vermont worse than Cali?
I'm from Los Angeles, now live in Vermont. I make a decent salary, but would be sleeping in my car in CA with this salary. So Cali hands down is more expensive to live. But I have to say, if you buy a house in CA, because of the weather, it is cheaper to maintain.
Vermonter here. Everything this man says is a lie... I hear Florida is great tho! ;)
LIES! LIES I TELL YOU!
Florida is a hot, humid, sweaty dump
@@Metalmirq why dont you tell us how you really feel. :)
FL is cheap. Easy. Fuck VT. Beautiful expensive state
Nobody is moving to Vermont 😂 thats why they will literally pay you to move there, you know why? Because it SUCKS. It's beautiful, don't get me wrong, those trees lured me in and I even got a job opportunity. I left within a week. Horrible place to live. I will certainly visit again though.
Vermont is not a diverse state racially, nor ethnically. More than 95 out of every 100 persons you will meet in Vermont are white. There are very few blacks ( 1.2% ), Hispanics ( 2.1% ) or Asians (1.6%). There is no indication that these percentages will change over the next 3 decades either. So depending on one's perspective , this could be a plus or a minus. Just wanted to share this info for people thinking of moving to one of the whitest states in the USA.
winooski vermont is the most diverse city in vermont where theres a lot more black and asian ppl living there
@@Evikeuklavier why?
Thats a big plus.
I'd love to hear about NH or Maine!!! Do both please!
The fact that this guy use to make Minecraft roleplay vids and makes a video that I need since I'm planning to move to the US in the future ( probably in the 2030) tnx man from making my childhood and future
Haha thanks so much for watching me all these years :)
Plz mor mincraft videos
Definitely visit a few potential places first or remain able to move around a bit. Hyperbolic UA-cam videos can give you an idea of what is out there but cannot capture the feel of a place. Personally, I think a mid-sized city is a good place to start. Burlington, VT is at the small end of that scale. Montreal is close weather and landscape wise but a good size larger.
Who is moving to Vermont? I live in Vermont and see people leave all the time. I've got to call BS on this video. Vermont is a beautiful place to visit, but we pay a lot of taxes and the cost o DC living is horrible.
I agree. Absolutely. We are declining in population. Running a business is very tough. Once the tourist season is over. Our volume can dip as far down as 50% in some areas. Not enough locals with expendable income to sustain a healthy economy. Yes, the cost of living is disproportionately high. Rent is down right ridiculous. We can't find staff to fill positions. Because we cannot pay them enough. Young people are leaving for many reasons. It is a beautiful state 💓
Agree
We moved here from Florida in 2019, just a few months before Covid hit. I'm originally from New England so I knew what to expect but Vermont has exceeded my expectations. We absolutely LOVE it here. The kids are thriving, the schools are terrific, nature is breathtaking, and the farm-to-table movement is fabulous. We grow veggies but also buy from local farmers, things like maple syrup, grass-fed beef, local potatoes, apples from local orchards, etc. We are never leaving.
Not sure where you live but southern Vermont has grown in population considerably and people are still coming here. So crowded now
@@Cafe1981 this is a very good point. Bc of how the economy is the cost of living to income ratio is way out of whack. Nyc prices in burlington with just a median income of about 53k a year. In comparison little rock ar has a very similar median income but cost of rent is about a third of the price. So its relative. The pay here does not match the cost of living. And the availability isnt there. I dont see how anybody who comes of age is going to be able to stay if they so choose. For me the weather is NOT for me. I hated it even as a little kid. Im moving to mississippi in 2 weeks. Another thing i havent seen anybody mention is in my looking at other states for housing i just realized how old the housing is here. My house was built in 1895 and my grandmothers was built in the 50s. I always considered her house a newer house. But in looking at housing options in mississippi and also in texas and tennessee. An older home or apartment is considered to be built in the 80s or 90s. That was kind of surprising to me just coming from a perspective of such old housing
Vermont is kinda like a little Canada (and Minnesota as well) 😂
That's one way to put it!
Accurate, even the accent is pretty Canadian.
We are also in a quiet war with them over maple syrup.
I moved to Vermont 12-13 years ago. I worked for GE Healthcare. I was hired on in Seattle and one day they came in and said I would work from home and be put on a team in Vermont. Being in my twenties I gave it a shot for my career. Working from home was hard. I now work from home ironically. Things I was shocked by moving here... Taxes. It's difficult to find afforable housing if you cannot buy. The cost of additional education is also expensive. So as much as he touts things here, I'd say be careful. It's really expensive.
What is the temperature like during winter ? And how much do chef get paid ?
As a person who has grown up in Vermont, went to college here and still currently lives and works in VT, this video didn't mention that there is an AFFORDABLE housing crisis that we continue to experience all over the State (no rentals available and those that are have hefty prices) as well as an AFFORDABLE child care crisis (wait lists and exorbitant prices) that is also impacting residents here. Yes, there is fiber optic progress here but it hasn't happened very quickly and in many areas, you still cannot get any cell phone service while on the road. I also worked for 4 months in 2020, for the US Census Bureau and Vermont is the SECOND WHITEST state in the Country. The state lacks diversity and there is racism here and white supremacy groups. Also, the public transportation is very limited unless you live in Burlington, otherwise you have to drive everywhere. If you are on a fixed monthly income, you many want to reconsider moving here, it's very expensive.
I agree with everything you said. Besides the racist comment. Amd tell what are those white supremacists groups called. Because I've never heard of them?
@@michaelbushey2787 - Patriot Front is one white supremacy group that has a strong presence in VT. There are others here as well, if you are BIPOC, you know them.
@@michaelbushey2787 Vermont has a shit ton of racism. It’s awful. You can’t turn a corner without seeing someone wearing trump merch, flying racist flags or seeing a scrawny white kid yelling the n word with no shame. It’s honestly disgusting.
@@ariannarichardson9132 what does trump have to do with racism? And you didn't name the names of the white supremacist groups we have all over the place. And of course there's going to some idiots out there. But its not nearly as bad is it would be in a big city . So you should be happy. Or leave.
@@denisemccarty1999 never heard of them . And lived here my whole life. Im sure they have a ton of members.
I thought everyone was moving to Texas and Florida!
I thought that also. 30 million in Texas and 22 million in Florida.
I thought it was idaho
@@LEVEL997analog Yes. The state of Idaho is growing!!
They all are growing more by sheer numbers, Vermont just had the highest percentage of inbound moves. So it basically means lots of people are moving in and very few people ever leave once they move in
From someone who lives in this god forsaken hell. Don’t do it. Unless you like driving in 10 feet of snow, 2 days of summer, every paved road is filled with potholes and every other road is dirt. Cool thing is you get to smoke weed. Snowboarding is a plus as well. Other than that nothing good to do here.
Having lived here for half a decade, I can say that Vermont is a lot more complicated than this video makes it seem. VT is crazy expensive to try to buy a home or rent an apartment right now. When I was living in St. Albans (City, not Town - although the Bay is nice when it’s not overrun with gnats), my rent was on par with NYC prices. No hyperbole.
The jobs are also not so lucrative on average, which makes the 802 even more cost-prohibitive.
Lovely place, but certainly not everybody’s cup of tea.
What is the temperature like during winter ? And how much do chef get paid ?
@@calvinjohn26 Winters are generally cold, but it really varies year to year. It tends to fall below zero in some parts of the state. I remember experiencing blizzards in Vermont; six years ago, for example, the visibility got so low that I struggled to see my own hands. However, this year, hardly any snow has fallen by comparison. The weather is spring-like, by our standards.
As for how much a chef can make, I am not sure. I think it depends on where you work and what you cook. I do not know much about the business side of the culinary world, but I would imagine that a very skilled chef, the sort that does catering for events and such, would make more than a chef at a diner with low foot-traffic.
@@_KITE colder than NY ?
@@calvinjohn26 Buffalo > most parts of Vermont > NYC
Caution. Nothing about VT in this video is really true.
Last I checked isn’t Vermont struggling to keep younger people in their state
I just moved here!
Gotta love that Fall Foilage!!! Haha
Yes, it's Reynolds Wrap fabulous. lol
everyone is NOT moving to Vermont because of the high taxes. Nice clickbait though.

As others have said once covid hit . Rich people from out of state buying housing without seeing it and paying over asking biding war. I agree we don't need that. House on the market for one day and sold.
Well Vermont has been offering $10,000 grants fo people to move here for a job, and I guarantee the rich have been utilizing that on top of their real estate sales.

From vernon here. Not much has changed. Thank God. We have been keeping our home clean and untarnished from garbage.^^
Blessings from home.
VT is rich or poor. No in between. For the amount of money a mobile home costs in VT, you can buy a 4 bedroom house with an indoor pool in FL.
Don’t come to Vermont, it’s already overcrowded and insanely expensive compared to ten years ago. Go somewhere else
Please keep making videos for us because your videos are interesting and always fun to watch.
Keep it up Bro

Hey Mango Tango..
It's a pretty great state! (Just kinda cold and relatively expensive) If you need any help moving here I work with people all over the state! Born and raised in Vermont and I am happy to answer any questions. 😃
What Vermont cities have the lowest cost of living?
There's only really 1 real city in the state, but most towns other than the famous ski towns like Stowe will be pretty affordable :)
Most rich people like Burlington but Rutland or Rutland county is the best place to be
Anything here in the NEK (Northeast Kingdom) is really cheap.
Hey Mango if your reading this than I will really hope you bring back FNAF roleplay its been so long and I love your old vids and now its like I dont k ow you anymore bring back mangotango!!!
nice
live in vermont. there is no affordable housing, childcare problems, and now burligton is turning bad with crime /homeless people. they put everyone in a hotel, bringing tons of homeless peop,e to move here. places on church street are closing down really fast.
From vermont burlington,lived here most my life the nature views awsome,
Are you talking the same burlington vermont?because drug use increase ,homelessness increased camping next streets on avnue so on you can't deny seeing this unless you choose to ignore? have you walked down church street?seen the rise of homeless hanging out crime is riseing too
Dont get me wrong most vermont awsome just got be real
Wish they'd STOP moving here and royally screwing up real-estate for the natives.... amongst other things 😒
I am from nyc and moved to vermont I can say that the rent is cheap,utilities are high, Food is about the same. Quality of life 10000 percent better. I wanted peace and quiet and wanted an exit out of the city life. I am in the northeast kingdom so things are very in diff here as opposed to maybe Burlington. I love it here and don't want to leave anytime soon and I live a humble modest life for the most part.
MANGO TANGO I MISSED YOU

Vermont is not the most moved to state in the country since 2017, that's demonstrably false and patently ridiculous. When you start a video out with a blatant lie, I'm going to be suspicious of everything else you're saying for the rest of the video.
It hasn't been the fastest growing, but according to United Van Lines (biggest moving company in the US), it has been the most moved to state.
Meaning, it's had the highest percentage of inbound moves of any state. Basically, a lot of people are moving in, and very few ever leave.
Hope you enjoyed!
All these rich flatlanders moving here are killing us locals. Stay the hell out.
I lived in Huntsville, Ontario, Canada for a year which is 130 miles north of Toronto, in Lake/cottage Country and after visiting Vermonts capital Montpelier I was amazed how much they both look alike, they both have a small river flowing through the downtown, the fall foliage is amazing in both of them, Huntsville has alot of natural lakes and hills, Montpelier has mountains instead of hills but no lakes. They both have about the same population, 10,000 or less.. The people seem very clickish and unfriendly to newcomers (unless you click with the right people by chance like I did in Huntsville), , but on the avg the people aren't very friendly in either place.
COME BACK MANGO TANGO WE MISS YOU!
Housing prices are so prohibitive that most people cannot afford to buy or rent.
Did bro just say foilage? smh, It's foliage, Marge.
Hipsters,hipsters hipsters
foliage not foilage

There is nothing cheap about living in Vermont lol. You were very right about the natural beauty here but not much else really. Still not a bad video
Since you coughed San Francisco in the video, I wanna know what your experiences have been. It tickled me. But can you cover Massachusetts and Rhode Island next?
with nothin to be done?

I moved from VT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! High taxes, terrible infrastructure if any!, Just a POS state! Mississippi has a higher GDP than VT. I lived in 20 states and VT was the worse of the worse.. Most cloudy overcast, nothing to offer unless you like snow! It sucked! Oh, education!, everyone I spoke to after graduation, moved to another state where their money went a lot further!
Vermont sucks. Im moving to mississippi. For me its the weather (and im a meteorologist) i cant stand the snow and cold. And i dont like the short summers. You are right about the cloudiness. The cost of living is also out of whack compared to the average income.

Happy 2M subscribers
Bud are you sure you’ve been to Vermont because I’ve lived here my whole life and I’m pretty sure it’s not cheap to live here
Could you do one for New Hampshire? I love your videos
This video reminds me of those old _Twilight Zone_ episodes where outsiders arrive in a small town where everyone is super-friendly, the streets are clean, there's no crime, and everybody gets along. And then the outsiders discover too late that everyone's a member or a cult, or the town is ruled by aliens, and they can never leave!
...like in the Stepford wives ?
HaHa. Of course its nothing like that here. You're good at jokes.
Ha ha, yeah, just like Twilight Zone & Hotel California, "you can never leave!!" It might turn out to come true...VT legalized pot for recreational use on July 1, 2018. Anyone 21 or older may posses 1 oz & grow a small amount of pot plants. In true VT Legislative fashion, there are still arguments and no resolution to allow the legal purchase of pot. You can be charged if you buy it illegally. Now does that make any sense????? With VT vying with Alaska for top weed consumption in the US, people moving here may be caught up in the ongoing VT stoner apocalypse. Many are walking and DRIVING around intoxicated on weed and/or alcohol. They may be unable to find their way to the border if they want to leave, provided they don't kill someone first. This goes double for the large number of boozers AND those who consume both substances. Let's not even talk about the ongoing opioid epidemic...
You want to see what it's like where practically everyone lives in a cult. A *real* cult? Try visiting Colorado City, AZ. That twisted town is scary AF.
So Utah?
I’m not sure I buy the premise that there is a massive net inflow of population to VT.
I’m loving this new channel!!! I’m glad that you are still alive, and being educational 😄

I live in coastal Connecticut, we have garbage weather instead of winter, I went skiing to mount snow Vermont, it was nice, wintery, and snow covered, and I didn’t want to leave.
You forgot to finish the statement.......everyone is moving to Vermont AND DESTROYING IT!!
Moved to VT from MI last year. Cost of living seems very comparable unless you are looking to live in Burlington or one of its richer southern "suburbs". Renting costs more than owning right now. Lots of shister landlords and investment firms lording over the rental market. My family bought a fixer-upper because we plan to stay long-term. Absolutely love it here!
I am living in Detroit now and may plan to move to Montpellier depending on my job interview. Can I ask your opinion on the living cost of the area near Montpellier compared to Detroit?
@@0zeldalink0 I live closer to Burlington, but I can tell you this. Montpelier is a beautiful place, the traffic is nothing compared to Detroit, and the people are generally friendly. Lots more white people, but the culture is laid back and open. Politically, Vermont is kind of purple. Everyone knows Bernie Sanders, but we have a reelected moderate Republican governor. You have your fringe idiots on both sides, but the state is much less polarized. The two parties work together and you can have civil discourse with just about anyone. Vermont is weird, but totally awesome IMO. Glad to be able to raise my daughter here. Winter is colder and snowier than we have had in SE MI for a decade or two, but there are endless winter activities to pursue.
Vt is ridiculously expensive. Right now hamburger is 12$ per lb. peppers are $5. A 1 br 1ba is 1300$ a month.
@@yousosilly9817 where the hell do you shop?! Peppers are like $2 max and lean beef is like $5/lb at Hannaford. I agree with the rent tho. My wife and I bought a place because the bloated mortgage is less than we were paying for rent a month. If you can find a place, prices are comparable to Michigan. We made more than we should have when we sold our place in Michigan. Bought for more than we should have in Vermont. We know we will lose equity in the short term, but it washes out because we bought high after selling high.
There is another number one reason. Vermont is a good place to go Squashing because Bigfoot loves the forest and sparsely populated areas. ;)

Almost burst into tears on your pronunciation of Montpelier
Also another reason, if you want to feel like in Canada without leaving the US is also a reason. Vermont is so much like Canada that it might as well become part of Canada. Vermont has been dubbed “ The Canada South.”
Love this video and would love to visit VT, but "foilage" made me think of Marge Simpson lol.
