It’s much cheaper but you have to factor in if the added time is worth it, both the driving and customs. You have the US Canada border both ways, and unless you are flying to another Canadian destination, you have Customs at YUL too. I have found it makes coming home when you are tired from your trip rather cumbersome.

I lived in DC for years and now live in Burlington. Everything in Burlington is easier from day to day living, traffic, crowds, pace of life, etc. But it is expensive as salaries are lower here and cost of living is high. There is less to do and BTV is a small airport so it’s hard to easily get away. Then there are the winters. It’s not just the cold it’s the dark and the gray. Even when the sun is up it’s often over cast. If you want a slower pace and can handle grim weather it’s a nice place to live. Just stock up on vitamin D.
