Housing Vacancy Rate by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Vermont

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Vermont's housing vacancy rates exhibit a striking north-south gradient, with the northeastern region—particularly the Northeast Kingdom area—displaying consistently high vacancy rates above 20%, rendered in bright yellow, while the central-western corridor around Burlington and Montpelier maintains significantly lower rates below 8%. The southern third of the state shows moderate vacancy levels interspersed with pockets of lower vacancy, particularly along the more urbanized western edge near Bennington and Brattleboro. A notable cluster of very low vacancy rates (under 4%) appears in the north-central area around Stowe and the Mad River Valley, likely reflecting tight housing markets in popular resort and amenity-rich communities.
