Razor - your ignorance about the state is showing.

There are a lot of appalachia-like areas in Vermont - particularly
in the Northeastern part of the state. I know quite a few people who
live without water.

Most of the state is not Stowe and even the picturesque towns with
pristine town centers are often a facade in front of people who don't
have enough money to eat.

Here is an article about how awful the schools are. This is NOT an
isolated incident.

Some of the very old black families are still around if you know where
to look, though the state is quite white. Some of the people listed as
white might not be if you scratch a bit. People who could pass as white
often did to avoid the eugenics campaigns leveled against the abenaki.
