Charlotte

The Town of Charlotte, Vermont was chartered in 1762 and is situated in the fertile Champlain Valley with a series of hills and ridges overlooking the great Lake Champlain. Charlotte, with its 3,500 residents, hosts a large network of working farms and forests that are flourishing from the productive Champlain Valley soils. The town is home to the small and growing villages of East and West Charlotte with corner stores, library, Grange, and senior center. Charlotte residents enjoy the buzz of farm activity and the quiet Vermont countryside as they also work hard to provide the best learning opportunities for their growing children, both in and out of the local schoolrooms. As well, citizens join the many and diverse volunteer organizations that have sprouted up to enrich the community and small town government so cherished here in Vermont.
