If you comparing to LA, all the places you mention are tiny. Brattleboro is close to western MA and Montpellier is about 30 min from Burlington (I think).

You don't mention what you want in a place so I think if you provide more details that would be helpful

I want a house, a fixer upper, and I'm pretty open. I want a nice, friendly, artsy, small town. I have friends that have lived in Vermont and loved it. I'm coming to visit in May. Thanks for everyones advice its helpful.

Sounds to me like you should check out houses in Putney, Dummerston or Brattleboro,

I think you'll like Montpelier

Yeah, I agree. Or Middlebury, potentially?

Demographically, they are similar. If you have specific questions about Montpelier, I can probably help but I don't know Middlebury as well.

I don't know either that we'll but I'm just speculating. I'm only really familiar with eastern Vermont

What is "eastern Vermont"? I've never heard that phrase before, ever.

Probably what the Eye on the Sky guys call "east of the Greens."

Towns along 91. Not saying it's a cohesive region, just the parts of VT I've lived/worked in
