A few years ago I got pulled over and issued a ticket with a >$100 fine for a very out-of-date inspection sticker (no other violations). The cop said that if I didn't pay it within the set time period my license would get suspended (and he mentioned something about a possible future warrant for my arrest, maybe if I ignored the suspension, but I forget the exact context). Either something changed in the past few years or there's another relevant law you haven't linked.

I've done a fair amount of travel to various cities big and small, and Brattleboro is the only place where I, a dude walking around, have gotten catcalled. Repeatedly. On consecutive days. By the same woman in the same vehicle. It was weird.

Thank you for the critique. I'm sure I and OP find it helpful. And yes, there is a housing crisis here, just like I said. It might even be worse here than whatever random Texas city OP is used to. I didn't realize people would find it misleading to mention its existence locally, but I should have remembered that this is reddit where someone always finds fault with anything.

The best way is probably to find an apartment, but that's tough with the housing crisis here. You can browse sites like Craigslist (beware of scams) or Zillow to ascertain rents.

Airbnb sounds expensive for a whole year, but I haven't priced it out.

Living in a camper through the winter will be very uncomfortable and probably downright dangerous unless you have a good heat source (ideally one that doesn't give you CO poisoning). Please remember that our winters are frigid and we get lots of snow. I don't know of any campgrounds that stay open through the winter, but maybe they exist. Be sure to factor in the cost of heat to your utility bills.
