Review of Burlington, Vermont


What it is like here in the winter months
Star Rating - 4/6/2010
I moved to Burlington, Vermont in 1974 when I was 15 years old. I am now 51. If you are considering a move here let me tell you about the climate.
There is no sun in the winter. I hear out West they have sun in the winter, we do not. Starting in November, that's when the "gloom" starts. I hate November. It's like setting you up for what's to come. Unless you ski or snowboard, or do something outside, the winters are very long. Normally Spring arrives in May. We can still have snow in April. In my opinion, I would live here in the summer and get out starting in November. It can get very depressing not seeing the sun for all those months.
