What it’s like
The place. Concord is a very small community in Essex County, Vermont, where neighbors are likely to know one another. Household incomes run below the county's, and the typical home is valued at less than many homes across the country. Winters are long and cold, with a great deal of snow, and summers are warm without being hot. Few adults hold a four-year degree.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, the building trades, shops and government. Across Essex County, the largest workplaces include the Canaan School District, the Brighton School District and Sweet Tree Holdings 1, a syrup and flavoring manufacturer. Jobs across the county were slightly fewer last year than the year before, while unemployment has eased a little.
Things to do. A short drive away, the St. Johnsbury Athenaeum is a museum, and the Moose River and Moore Reservoir offer water to walk beside or fish. A longer drive leads to Franconia Notch State Park, a protected area in the mountains. The Winooski River is also within a longer drive.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Concord’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Essex County.
