My city is full of COVID cases and the weather is becoming unbearable thanks to global warming. I’m daydreaming of escaping north to a quaint rural village. So tell me, DL: Which side of Lake Champlain is better? Is there any appreciable difference culturally? How about taxes?
Both have pockets of truly disturbing poverty. Like the type of shit you see in the Deep South.
Given that, I’ll take the Hudson Valley any day over VT. There are more interesting towns near the river with the things one needs and wants: restaurants, bars, an art scene, farmers markets, etc. Towns like the obvious: Rhinebeck, Red Hook, Tivoli, Germantown. But I like further up: Old Chatham, Kinderhook, Ghent. Hudson is just ok. A lot of gross pretentious homos from the city have made it insufferable.
Lastly, Troy is a small city on the river that is seeing a small renaissance. The hip kids have landed there, there’s lots to do (a couple of truly good restaurants) and if you just have to see Vermont, it’s 25 miles away.

After Hurricane Sandy flood waters nearly got me in Brooklyn, I moved to Troy. I had been in NYC for 35 years and I did not want to live through all the Sandy-related rebuilding. Troy is not Brooklyn, though parts of it look like the very best of Brooklyn. It's comfortable. It's cheap. There are endless real estate opportunities here. And its proximity to a wealth of cultural advantages is much appreciated. Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Sage College and the Hudson Valley Community college are all in Troy. Add to it all the hipsters moving from New York and you see why the average age in Troy is just over 30. I've enjoy the move greatly. During the Covid-19 lockdown, I was kiss-the-ground grateful not to be in an apartment in NYC.
There are adjustments to be made after leaving NYC. But there have been many rewards.

Having lived in Vermont for over a decade now, I recommend the Hudson Valley. There's a lot more going on and you don't run into the drunk deplorable on the road quite as often. Wherever you go rurally, be careful if you want to go backroading, don't insult local politics or question how they do things in general, and you'll be fine.
Vermonters know they need the tourist dollars even if they secretly hate you. Avoid the little tourist traps and check out the more progressive towns.
Go further up 100 if you want more progressive towns to eat in and enjoy if you do decide to cruise up the Vermont way. Even Vermonters avoid most of the box store shit in Rutland and it's known as being 'different' even in their poorly preserved old section. Waterbury is a great foodie haunt with craft beers and local foods offered in some pretty cool restaurants. There are swim holes all along the way up if you go on a hot day (just pull over on the White River anywhere up past Rochester....there's a nice blueberry picking place right across from a great swim hole), and take a detour to the Robert Frost haunts around Middlebury with a left onto 125 from 100 in Granville. Stop in the Ripton general store, but watch for it on the left or you'll blink and go by.
TONS of trails all around this area, but the trails are free around Breadloaf and the views are spectacular.

If you're comparing both sides of Lake Champlain, Vermont wins IMO. Burlington through Middleburry is some of the best that Vermont has to offer. Plattsburgh is the only city of any size that side of the lake, and while it has a few good restaurants and shops, it's very run down. There are some pretty towns in that area of NY (Essex and Peru), but they are in decline and VT has nicer equivalents. Taxes are a motherfucker in VT though.

The advantage of upstate NY is that you can get to the city in two hours (if you're no further than Hudson). Vermont offers better scenery but no escape.
However, if you're willing to go further, Troy, as people have mentioned, is really quite nice if you can find a place in the downtown area. Really good restaurants, wonderful architecture (It looks like Greenwich Village) and a vibrant night scene. Even has a burgeoning vegan scene as well.
Also, the winters are somewhat milder in the Hudson Valley than in Vermont. Those Vermont winters can seem interminable.

When my late husband kicked the bucket I was out of there like Flash Gordon . We had a huge apartment in a victorian pile that cost $645 a month. But the light bill in winter was $645 a month !

I'll chime in. It's pretty gross but that's changing. Near Washington Park are lovely brownstones and some nicer apartment buildings. Also, the REGION in general has a lot going on. And youre 2.5 hours by Amtrak to NYC. So from a location perspective, you could do a lot worse. Just know the city itself can be pretty dire. 1/2 of it is a ghetto. But there are a lot of cool people to meet who work for state government. Some good restaurants have FINALLY opened. And it's cheap. You can get a great apt in a BIG brownstone for a fraction of what it would cost in NYC.
One thing to note: a lot of gay guys are moving up there from the city. My friend just opened a nice wine store in Albany and he said he was shocked at the number of kinda hot daddy guys who dropped in.

FWIW: The Millenial Urban Exodus: Why Are We Leaving Major Cities For Rural Life?
From San Francisco to London and Tokyo, millennials are leaving major cities for smaller towns and rural areas. So what’s inspiring the move? One writer reflects on her own experiences and looks to others who, like her, are forming an urban exodus.
. . .
But like I’d discovered in France, looking outside of cities, however, can offer a kind of time travel; a glitch in the matrix; a quickening in your chest that it might still be open to you. In the US, a millennial exodus from cities has left suburbs dubbed ‘Hipsturbia’, spurred on by Instagram realtors such as Cheap Old Houses, where it can feel like one, two or even three zeroes have been forgotten off the price.
It’s not without complications — the ‘getting more for your money’ argument has long been the blinding, guiding light of gentrification. And now, that risk isn’t concentrated in cities alone. Because if millennials were handed a dud round financially, we were also handed a joker card: high-speed internet. As companies including Facebook, Twitter, and Spotify announce employees can work from home indefinitely, people have a once-in-a-lifetime chance to pole-vault suburbs and theoretically go where they like. In China, the nostalgic countryside-set videos of blogger Li Ziqi have made her a ‘rural influencer’

Living in a townhouse in a small city like Hudson means, as R61 says, you get to live in a beautiful home but you are also within walking distance of restaurants and stores, you can easily get together with other people without getting into a car, you can get a cup of coffee in minutes, and all the other pleasures of urban life -- but you are also minutes from beautiful trails, hiking, fresh produce stands etc. It's the best way to live.
And of course, you are paying a fraction of what you would pay in NYC.

I love the trend of millennials going rural, but the clash with the local culture, back in the hippie days, wasn't pretty. Even now, there are 'incidents' people never hear about. Be careful and know that even the color of your underwear will be known within weeks. Small town life can be isolating, weird, and sometimes cruel.
Flooding in both areas will be an issue in the coming years. Parts of VT regularly get cut off.
Go up to the cold regions with someone or something (big furry dog?) to snuggle with. The winters are indeed interminable and you WILL get sick of them. Learn to ski and snowshow for sanity's sake.
Our crazy group of homesteaders always gets squirrely come January....with about 3 more months to go until you see a leaf, who can blame them? Save some money for a regular getaway every winter. Again, for sanity's sake.
I like this trend of rurbanization....it will be interesting to see how it susses out as VT is a tough place to live, but if you bring an internet job, the state has a financial incentive payout....

[quote]Hope you like long, sometimes brutal winters.
As the oceans have warmed, and risen, the winters in NYC are growing increasingly turblent and severe. Conversely, the winters in the Hudson Valley are relaxing a bit. Moving into the Hudson Valley does not necessarily set you up for severe winters. There are often great winter storms in NYC that do not reach us 100 miles north (and away from the ocean.)
Elevation is everything when dealing with winter in the Northeast. Albany and Troy are, basically at sea level. But you don't have to drive more than 20 minutes to have find yourself in an area of much greater elevation. It will be colder there and be more prone to snow. If you're considering the Hudson Valley or the Berkshires or the Catskills, scrupulously pay attention to elevation. During the summer, things are generally the same, though the nights might be cooler in the mountains. But in the winter, there are advantages to living at lower elevation.
Yes, they are very good about keeping the roads cleared. But the higher in elevation you go, the more you will have to contend with cold and snow.

According to a distressing new report in the New York Times, New York City — formerly a humid continental climate — is now within the humid subtropical climate zone. In fact, per the report, the city has met the National Climate Assessment’s requirements to classify as humid subtropical for the past five years: Temperatures have averaged above 72 degrees in the summer and 27 degrees in the winter. (During the first three months of this year, the average temperature in Central Park was over 42 degrees Fahrenheit, the director of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Northeast Regional Climate Center told the Times.)
Horticulturists have pointed to a handful of clear indicators of the city’s changing climate in addition to the rising temperatures: Flowers are blooming earlier than ever, the city’s native birch trees and sugar maples are suffering from the sweltering heat and drought while plants and trees that have historically thrived in Southeast Asia and South America are now flourishing, and in lieu of moderate rainfall, we’re now seeing torrential storms that erode soil and cause ponds to overflow. Also it’s just really hot.

I don't know if I should even bother answering because it's been so long, but I went to school in Oneonta (SUNY), but that was 40 years ago.
The country around there was beautiful, but fairly poor. The only places to work were Oneonta State and Hartwick College, a private school that was also in Oneonta. Lots of farming. What was then a charming downtown with - if I remember correctly - around 50 bars. I spent a lot of time in a bar called The Copper Fox.
From bits of articles here and there, the area is apparently becoming popular. Maybe it's just being discovered. You should check it out. Great college town if you think you'd like that. But with a pandemic, I suspect a lot of the cultural and other opportunities that the colleges would have normally offered are now gone.
And winters were not horrible, that I remember, and since then I'm sure they've gotten warmer. One thing upstate New York (real upstate, not across the bridges) knows how to do is plow. The snow barely lands on the ground before it's plowed away.
Again, I bet it's worth a look and from what I've seen on Zillow, still affordable. Relatively.

The key to coming upstate successfully is finding others who have also abandoned the City and moved upstate. They are quicker, sharper, more experienced, and more knowing than the locals.
