i lived there for a bit, its amazing, cheep bud and good people.
you will be hard pressed to find a job, but the schools are easy to get into, all but the university of vermont, burlington is the closest thing to a city you will find, but it is chock full of head shops and accepting people. the housing is cheep throughout the state but it is COLD in the winter, my first day living there it was -30 f, if you dont have a good 4 wheel drive car or somthing that can make it in snow you wont get far in the winter.

i would say if you like the woods and cold, and being broke go for it.
