You shouldn’t move here if you’re expecting to thrive on a teachers salary in VT (excluding higher ed). We’ve all been making sacrifices here, but I wish you luck finding a good job.

Why do people live there if it's all sacrificing?

Because they’re too poor move duh. It’s why we have such empty food shelf centers and people on this sub constantly looking for cheaper fuel. Everything’s getting more expensive and the people that afford to live here are buy homes and live elsewhere 10/12s of the year.

Yeah, I’m not trying to bully you away, I just see a lot of people get tricked by VT on Instagram and it’s frustrating for everyone. It’s a great and hard place to live

Mehhhh well. I'm kind of doing it for research. I'll be living with two friends, too, so maybe it'll be okay. I'm just stupid frugal and afraid of having to "do without."
