AARP Vermont recently released findings from an April 2025 survey conducted by ANR Market Research of Burlington adults aged 45 and older. The results reveal a community deeply committed to staying put—81% want to remain in Burlington as they age—yet face mounting challenges that could push them out. High property taxes, rising utility bills, aging housing stock, and limited mobility options are making it harder for residents to maintain their independence and stay in the neighborhoods they call home.
On June 4, AARP Vermont presented a webinar on Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) and how to navigate the regulatory hurdles and other challenges to plan and develop this form of housing. The webinar covered ADU benefits, shared architectural design ideas, the latest zoning regulations, and the steps required to get an ADU permitted and built in Burlington. The event was well attended.

Unfortunately, due to social distancing restrictions, the sailing trips for our members in July have been cancelled. AARP Vermont hopes to reschedule events like these as restrictions change, but nothing can be set at this time. We apologize for any inconvenience and disappointment this causes.
Due to concerns for the safety and our members and staff in light of the pandemic, we have cancelled the scheduled shredding events in Colchester (May 12) and Brattleboro (May 19). We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but we are committed to reschedule the service for later this year when it becomes safe to do so. Please stay tuned for more information on this event and others as the year progresses and social distancing restrictions are adjusted. Thank you for your understanding.

The war against Covid-19 progresses with serious attention given by many to social distancing and the use of face coverings. Sadly, there also are many who feel protecting their family, friends, neighbors, and me is too much of an effort. With many of us engaged in social distancing, though, the con-artists are cranking up their constant attack via email and telephone. Here are some of the scams and malicious attacks that surfaced in the past week.
