Interracial couple with black/biracial kids here - we’re newer and in Burlington but I have to say in our experience the schools have been way more on top of things than in the very diverse, liberal state we moved from. Obviously others have had different experiences, but it was something I worried a lot about before moving and have been very pleasantly surprised so far.

Also feel free to DM me if you want to connect! It was very helpful to us to be able to talk to other BIPOC families when we were thinking about moving.

That’s good to hear. Do you feel like you’re accepted in the community?

100%. But, as people have pointed out, geography matters. Will you be able to visit before moving?

Yes, he’ll actually be there for a few months before the rest of the family even comes down
