What it’s like
The place. Newfane is a small village in Windham County, Vermont, with few people living in it. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month, and the year is wet, with a steady amount of rain and melted snow. Most of the country has milder winters, so the cold is part of daily life here.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, in manufacturing, or in the building trades. Jobs in the county held about level over the past year, with slightly fewer than before. Unemployment is lower than it was a year earlier.
Things to do. The Rock River runs in or beside the town, so it is an easy walk or short trip for a look at the water. Townshend State Park, a protected area, is a short drive away and suits a day outdoors. Steamtown, U.S.A., a museum, is a longer drive but is worth the trip for a day out.

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 Windham County.
