What it’s like
The place. Randolph is a small Vermont town with more people who rent their homes than across the county as a whole, and household incomes that run below the county's. A good share of adults hold a four-year degree, and a fair number work from home. Winters are long and cold, with a great deal of snow, and summers are pleasantly warm.
Work. Most residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, followed by manufacturing, shops and government. Gifford Medical Center, the Orange Southwest Unified Union School District and Shaws Supermarkets are among the largest workplaces in town. Across Orange County, unemployment has eased a little over the past year, though the county has fewer jobs than it did a year earlier.
Things to do. Chandler Music Hall, a theatre in or beside town, is the best known place close to home. A short drive away are Allis State Park and Mount Cushman State Forest, both protected areas good for walking and time outdoors. For a longer outing, Killington Ski Resort is a ski area a longer drive away.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Randolph’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively low. 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 Orange County and the Lebanon, NH-VT metro.
