If you’re about to move to the 802, you’re in for a few surprises. You may think you know what life is like in Vermont, but you’ll quickly learn that nothing is quite like it seems. After all, Vermonters always have a few tricks up their sleeves. What you’ll find when you unpack the truck and head outside is that the mountain views are better, the people are nicer, the water is clearer and the food is fresher than anywhere else. You picked a great place to move, but please don’t try to change it. We love our little state just as it is!
