16 Things That Make People From Small Town Vermont The Best People

Small towns in Vermont may not have the flashy attractions and nightlife you find in big cities, but that's part of what makes them so special. And the best part about these towns? Why it's the people of course! Let's take a look at what makes people from small town Vermont the best kind of people you'll ever meet.

1. They say hello to everyone.

People say hello and wave from their cars. They're friendly like that.

2. They know how to make their own fun.

They don’t have the big venues, the huge movie theaters and the giant shopping centers. What they do have are fields, community get-togethers, and a whole lot of creativity. Sometimes the ideas aren't the safest choices...

3. People in a small town know all the best swimming holes.

And they may or may not tell outsiders. Sometimes secrets are good.

The whole town will be on the lookout for each and every missing dog.
