"Remote work has allowed people to live wherever they choose, no longer tied to urban and suburban areas to be close to their jobs. High urban and suburban home prices and the availability of remote work had Americans looking for more affordable cities that offer a good quality of life. The numbers tell a remarkable story of transformation. Between 2020 and spring 2024, two-thirds of population growth for those aged 25 to 44 occurred in areas with fewer than 1 million residents or rural counties."
"Nestled in the shadow of Mount Mansfield, Stowe is a true gem among the stunning peaks of the Green Mountains. This charming Vermont town has become a magnet for those seeking four-season beauty and small-town authenticity. Stowe is the gateway to Mount Mansfield, the state's highest peak, and we can clearly see why this is one of the best places to visit during the Autumn. The town offers something magical year-round."
"Stowe's proximity to the mountains means it offers endless opportunities for nature lovers to enjoy hiking trails, biking, and cross-country skiing adventures, so you can enjoy the outdoors any time of the year. Around town, you have unique shops and family-owned restaurants, and the architecture of church steeples and colonial-style houses bursting through foliage dense with reds, oranges, and yellows."
Remote work and rising urban and suburban home prices prompted many Americans to relocate to smaller cities and rural counties seeking affordability and quality of life. Between 2020 and spring 2024, two-thirds of population growth for people aged 25 to 44 occurred in areas with fewer than 1 million residents or in rural counties. Millions traded expensive city apartments for mountain views, ocean breezes, and stronger community ties. Stowe, Vermont exemplifies the shift with four-season outdoor recreation, small-town authenticity, unique shops and restaurants, a strong tourism trade, and Vermont hospitality attracting newcomers.
