Best hidden gems in Vernon

Longtime lurker here, Been living here since 2014. With a population of 9,947, Vernon is a small town. Average temperature is around 63--F, so the weather is moderate. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable.

Great question. I'll try to be comprehensive here.

I'm a teacher who relocated here from Chicago about 8 years ago. The main reasons were weather and school.

Pros I've experienced:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Great outdoor activities nearby
- Lots of new development happening

Cons that are real:
- Summers can be brutally hot
- Road conditions need improvement

Financially, we've found it improving compared to where we came from. Older homes are where the value is. Groceries are developing, gas is excellent.

Socially, it's improved dramatically in recent years. Feel free to reach out with questions..
