What it’s like

The place. Stockbridge is a small Vermont town where nearly everyone lives in a home they own, and few households are renting. Household incomes sit just below the county's, and relatively few residents live below the poverty line. Winters are cold and snowy, with January the coldest month, while summers are mild and comfortable, and rain and melted snow fall steadily through the year.

Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with manufacturing, professional and business services, and banks, insurance and property also providing jobs. Across Windsor County, the largest workplaces include the Veterans Health Administration, the Hartford School District and Mt. Ascutney Hospital and Health Center. Unemployment across the county is low and unchanged from a year ago, and the commute is a fairly long one for many people.

Things to do. Killington Ski Resort and Pico Mountain are both ski areas a short drive away, and Gifford Woods State Park offers protected woodland close by. The Ottauquechee River is also a short drive from town. For a longer outing, the Green Mountain National Forest is a larger protected 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 across Windsor County, 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 Windsor County and the Lebanon, NH-VT metro.
