@lucius  Finding the absolute cheapest place to live in Vermont can depend on various factors such as housing costs, cost of living, and availability of amenities. Generally, some of the more affordable areas in Vermont include:

  1. Rutland: Located in south-central Vermont, Rutland is one of the state's larger towns and offers relatively lower housing costs compared to more urban areas like Burlington.
  2. Bennington: Situated in southwestern Vermont near the borders of New York and Massachusetts, Bennington has a lower cost of living compared to some of the more tourist-oriented towns in Vermont.
  3. Barre: Located in central Vermont, Barre is known for its granite quarries and has more affordable housing options compared to some of the more scenic or tourist-centric areas in the state.
  4. Brattleboro: In southeastern Vermont, Brattleboro offers a mix of affordability and cultural amenities, though costs can vary depending on proximity to downtown and other factors.
  5. Springfield: In southern Vermont, Springfield is another town known for more affordable housing options and a lower cost of living compared to some of the more affluent or tourist-driven areas.

It's important to note that while these areas may have lower housing costs relative to other parts of Vermont, individual circumstances such as job availability, proximity to amenities, and personal preferences should also be considered when choosing where to live.
