There is enough room for growth in Vermont where families like mine would want to come in and revitalize small walkable towns. I would love to buy a rundown property in a decent small town work at the school My wife is a nurse. We're still trying to make it happen.

I’m not sure how more transplants are going to help when there’s a nasty housing crisis. I feel like people are ignoring this.

You have a worker shortage as well though. Nurses, teachers, residential construction.

Vermont is paradoxically stuck. Not enough people for available jobs. Not enough housing for the current population.

Yeah, it’s possible for sure. It’s certainly easier if you’re closer to a large hospital (Burlington, Dartmouth)
