## Resource

Vermont’s housing crisis is heating up as short-term rentals flood tourist towns, pushing out residents and workers. While state officials hesitate to regulate due to tourism’s economic boost, towns like Stowe face skyrocketing vacation rentals—sometimes 20% or more of housing stock—making affordable housing scarce. With no statewide rules, communities scramble for solutions: some cap rentals, others offer incentives for long-term leases. The debate rages between property rights, economic gains, and community survival—Vermont’s balancing act is far from over.
