If you work remotely, Vermont is going to be an issue with internet access. According to the broadband locator, you’ve got mostly satellite or low speed wireless internet there.

We are spoiled in RI that way, which is the most connected state — every single address here has access to at least one high speed broadband provider. It’s one reason I live here.

I wouldn’t trust T-Mobile’s promised speeds, especially in rural Vermont. Their coverage maps are… “optimistic.”

Or at the very least I’d make an offer on the place contingent upon 5G actually working there.

I'm sure it works for 5 minutes at a time. I lived in rural VT we had satellite and it sucked.
