Where should I move in vermont? -

Im 24yrs old, engaged to my beautiful fiance,and have a one year old baby boy. I live in connecticut and hate it. I want to move to Vermont but my main concern of course is paying the mortgage. What town in VT can I move but be able to find work, a good elementary school, and some ppl my age. I visit Wilmington, vt regularly and was thinking of moving to brattleboro. I hear there is a community college around which is great; i dont have many skills and currently work doing security. I am heading towards a degree in counseling but not far along enough work in that field besides being a counselor s aide.

Burlington or one of it s surrounding communities would probably be the best fir for you. UVM and other colleges are in the area, and since it is VT s largest city, it would probably be you best bet at finding work. Great city with lots of younger people.

your best choice might be burlington for jobs, schools, and people close to your age---BUT the catch about living in burlington (or vermont) is that jobs are very few and living costs are pretty high--also, most of the people are either college kids, ski bums, hippies and white trash---i vive near by in maine and know vermont very well...you might want to consider portland, maine--i know alot of vermonters who moved here to get away from vermont

These are the top five cities in Vermont for families to live in. Burlington, Washington, Brattleboro, Bennington, Albany. I would do research on these five and see which one you like the best.

Car or Suv rental from NY to Florida in the snow? -

I want to rent a car or suv from NY to Florida during December. Not sure about using a car up north because the cars don t have snow tires, as for Suv AWD I don t mind but now snow tires on those either, I don t think they can give you snow tires right? I would like to rent a car because it s cheaper, and they usually sometimes clear the highways, and I m only driving through snow until I get to I guess North Carolina?

There s no guarantee that there would even be snow in December. And if you plan on driving down I-95, there is no need for snow tires or AWD. Just get a car, you ll have to stop less to fuel up.

Hi. I get the impression you haven t spent much time in New York. It doesn t usually snow much in downstate NY in December, and when it does we have these things called snow plows that remove the snow from the road. Particularly on major highways, any car in reasonable shape will be fine. If you were planning to drive around on dirt roads in the Adirondacks I d suggest something with all-wheel drive, but not to drive down I-95.Also, although it is common to rent a car at one place in Florida and give it back somewhere else, that s not common elsewhere, and you will pay a large surcharge to return it in Florida. Hertz, for example, will charge about $600 for three days or $700 for a week for a car from NY to Miami.Since you can often find plane tickets from NY to Miami for $99, why would you want to drive?

definetly get an SUV if you plan on driving through the snow!!

Visiting the Florida Keys in January, February, March? -

Is it too cold to go in January, February, or March? I m really into snorkeling so the waters should be warm. Thanks!!

The Florida Keys has great weather in the winter. I ve been there in January and it s warm enough to swim, sunbathe, snorkel, and partcipate in other water activities. Temperatures are usually in the 80 s F in the daytime. It s usually sunny, too.
