I hope you’re happier where you’re at now. I love VT personally. I’m up there almost every weekend in winter.

But there’s plenty of things to bitch about there if you look for the negativity in everything. Wherever you go, there you are… It’s very remote. There aren’t as many jobs. Taxes are high. Tourists are fucking stupid. AirBnB is a plague.

The Alabama-tucky thing is funny, coming from someone who just moved to a state which is substantially more rural. Parts of NH are only 30 miles from Boston.

I thought about moving to VT but proximity to work and family keep me here. The two states aren’t really that different. How could they be? It’s at most 100 miles to the border from any point.

Vermont doesn’t have a Manchester, but it does have a Barre and a Rutland, with similar problems. Both states have less desirable places for any given person.
