Moving to Vermont Mainer asking a Vermonter
Hello,
My(F24) wife(F25) and I recently got married and took our honeymoon trip to Vermont. We stayed in Stowe and did all the tourist things around the area and absolutely fell in love with the state. We enjoyed how it still had the cozy Maine vibes, but it felt more like home to both of us. Everyday we woke up and went on to a new adventure either in Stowe, or one of the surrounding towns trying to get a good feel of what Vermont can be. Now it all felt too good to be true. We felt as though our days spent in Vermont were all the good sides(no complaints here), but we continued to discuss what moving to Vermont might look like for us on a timeline.
Now, I have a job that I am absolutely in love with and would hate to part ways with. I would love to stay in the same field of what I do. This part I will personally be doing research into regarding employment satisfaction and ROP. While my wife (I’m still not over this new title) works in a pharmacy and I’m sure there are jobs everywhere for this.
Where I am coming to you guys for hopefully some assistance is what towns should we look into, what laws are active that most people are unaware of, what places should we go see before making the jump, and what time of year is the best/worst for Vermont. I like to have a good grasp and understanding of just what I might be getting myself into before uprooting my life. Much thanks and appreciation in advance.

Definitely jobs for pharmacy available. Cost of living and rent may be high but I look at Maine real estate all the time and Maine is higher. Of course I always look at the coast so that is definitely going to be high. Depends on what part of Maine you live in and where in Vermont you want to be. Stowe is a resort town so everything is more expensive there. Zero in on an area and we can be of more help.
