As much as I don't like that I feel this is a nationwide issue. We as a country have too many renters and large property mgmt companies. As a whole more and more Americans are losing access to own an affordable private property of their own.

I feel many southern states can relate to Vermonters. I would imagine a 4th generation Tennesee native wouldn't appreciate city folk from NJ or CT coming there to stir shit or push their lifestyle onto a small Tennessee town. We generally don't mind out of staters and most are fine. It's the condescending ones and leaf peepers at Quechee we can't stand.
I mean for fucks sake they're trees and it makes no sense they come all the way up here when upstate NY and hell even those states have autumn foliage. It makes as much sense driving 3 hours from Arkansas to Texas to stare at cacti and hold up traffic because you're doing 15 under the speed limit.
Also side note is I love how out of staters act like they're doing a favor for us when they come up for sky season because it helps the economy. You know who else comes up here then as well? Jamaicans, Dominicans and folks from Latin America. Not hating on them and infact I respect the grind but that's less money staying in VT and America as a whole.

To be fair a good chunk of folks from St Albans, Rutland and Bennington are rude and white trashy.
