Though Burlington is the largest city in the state of Vermont, it is, by no means, a large city. With a population hovering around 42,000 people, the city exemplifies the nature of Vermont cities: small and sparsely populated. Burlington also has not grown by leaps and bounds in recent decades, though it did grow by over 3,000 people in the past decade. The city dates back to the late 18th century, built after a land grant from New Hampshire was provided to 64 homesteaders. The city reached its peak of prominence in the mid 19th century, where it was a valuable port of Lake Champlain, which has access to the Great Lakes and the Atlantic via the Erie Canal and the Champlain Canal.
Today, the city of Burlington is mostly on the map thanks to its position as the original home of the delicious ice cream maker Ben & Jerry. The two venerable ice cream makers began their company in Burlington in 1978, though the headquarters was eventually moved to South Burlington. Other major industries in the area include health care and education. Representing the former is the Fletcher Allen Health Care Medical Center, which is actually affiliated with the latter industry. The University of Vermont, which is located in Burlington, runs the medical center and has a large student population of about 12,000 students. This accounts for about a quarter of the city’s total population, making Burlington a real college town. Thankfully, Burlington has one of the country’s lowest unemployment rates, which, as of 2011, was about 4.8%.
