All interstate too, so I can imagine it wasn’t too bad.

It’s gonna be pretty crazy, I work in Stowe and with the recent snow it’s been fairly busy.

Staffing more than likely, they’ve been like that for quite some time.

It’s incredible how much things have changed in just the past five years around here; I’ve been fortunate enough to land a decent job myself recently but would not know what I’d do if I didn’t and was moving here from another state with family nowhere in sight. Grateful for family, girlfriend and what I have in life (I.e my health and good friends).

Gotta be honest, doesn’t help to say that we have an abundance of affordable housing; cause we indeed do not.

Expensive and almost non-existent.

Reply to comment by OfferImpressive in Late Planning Xmas in Vermont! by OfferImpressive
I frequently go out to the Stowe area as I work in town and I'd say that I would definitely try and make your way out to Smuggs or Bolton for a better time when it comes to just the wait. Stowe is seriously screwed in the winter time when it comes to skiing and other activities. The town itself is really nice to walk around and sight see but the shops and such are pretty pricey. If I were you I'd make the commute out to Burlington or even Jericho or Underhill, they have some nice spots to visit!

Reply to comment by Vtguy802812 in Are NH and Vermont a lot like Maine? by [deleted]
I did the exact same thing during the pandemic and just moved back a few months ago, I'd have to really agree with what you said about the similarities between ME and VT. Maine definitely seems to have milder winters for sure and that depends on which part of Maine you live in. I have a reasonable job working for the state and it pays decently with full benefits, in Maine I had a job making close to $19 an hour with rent that was cheap around $750 a month, but on the other end of things food and gas was more expensive. You can say the same thing with Vermont when it comes to the cost of living it just depends on where you live within the state.

Heck yeah dude, glad you got something remote. After some time that would eventually take a toll, I had about a 25 minute commute from Augusta to Gardiner.
