Too many people, an increasing percentage of which seem to lack the “live and let live” attitude that most Vermonters had when I was growing up. It’s the main reason why I’m planning to move. I just want to be left alone.

That attitude is going to be hard to find anywhere with our current mega polarized politics across the country.

I disagree. That hasn’t been my experience in many rural areas across the country.

That hasn't been my experience. Rural America tends to follow on set of hyper partisan politics while urban Erica follows another. Then again, I haven't been everywhere.

Idaho man. When me and my wife decided to move back home (we’d been out of state for 6 years) we were also contemplating Idaho. Spent a couple weeks in Fairfield with a friend who lives out there and it was like VT was 20 years ago. Although I guess they have their fair share of assholes moving in from California since Covid.
Anyways, we decided to move back home and it’s not the same place we left.

That’s actually one of the states I’m strongly considering, though I’m leaning slightly more toward Montana.

Montanas gorgeous, just seems like it’s been more overrun than Idaho from what I’d seen. But than again I was only in the Bozeman area which has to be the most overrun. Haha

It's the second least populated state in the country.
What's live & let live about moving because that's too many people?

Total population is not the same thing as population density.

And my neighbors are cows.
So where are you?
Edit: the population of Vermont is 645,570. NYC has 8 million people.

I’m not sure what your point is.
I’m in Franklin County.
