"THE VERMONT LAND RUSH"

There is a land rush in Vermont!.....well at least you would think so going by the prices that local real estate agents are trying to get for some pieces. We're talking remote, no electric, no sewer, no gas, no nuttin...and the roads to get to these parcels are only passable with ATV's in the summer and maybe snowmobiles in winter. So what gives? More greed? Do they think that local people are stupid enough to pay their inflated prices or maybe they are only trying to get out of towners to buy that have more money than brains. We ain't talkin Massachusetts here. We already know what happened to land prices in our own City (town). Once the real estate agents get their grubby hands on property it becomes unafordable to local people, actually they prefer out of towners. So any one out there got and acreage (24 +) I prefer Vermont because they haven't been regulated to death......yet.......with permitidous, and cofferaddalotus...two of the terminal deceases we here in North Adams are effected with. Any way I will pay a fair price for land if it suites my needs....remote, doesn't have to have electric, a brook or stream is desirable and wanted, like to shoot guns without complaining neighbors, and a descent access road to the land. OK I'll be waiting for your call.

Andy, Newt would be proud of you. But by leaving out the rest of the staticts which show a very different relationship between population density and over all population you are trying to give a false picture (http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0004986.html)
Vermont is still much, much less expensive to live in.
