OK so Household incomes average around $101,550 in Burlington. Poverty rate is 2.4%, which is pretty low. You can expect to pay around $1,442 for rent here. Median household income is $101,550, which feels pretty solid for the area. Average temperature is around 55--F, so expect cold winters. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood.

Cons:
- Traffic can be terrible
- Limited public transit
- Limited cultural events
- Homelessness issues downtown
