Generation Gap

Print More

Vermont has a generation gap. Young adults in their 20s are
part of the largest generation ever in America.

But Vermonters ages 20 to 34
continue to leave the state. And a low birth rate means they’re not being
replaced.

Politicians have debated for
years the significance, but most agree the trend is cause for concern about the
economic and cultural well-being of the state.

Vermont Edition delves into this
trend and how it affects the economic and cultural well-being of the state in
the series "Generation Gap."

The Generation Gap Project is made possible by the VPR Journalism Fund.
