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.

Four small organizations with big plans have been selected to receive Community Action Grants from AARP Vermont supporting their efforts to make Newport a more “Age-Friendly” city. In partnering with AARP Vermont, Newport has committed to embrace the changing demographics of an aging population by focusing on safe, walkable streets, better housing and transportation options, access to key services and community engagement opportunities for all ages. These Community Action Grants support that direction by funding small, grassroots organizations that are working to advance the Age Friendly movement.

With the support of Newport Mayor Paul Monette, Newport City Council and developer Bill Stenger, Newport is poised to become Vermont’s first city to join AARP’s nationwide Network of Age Friendly Cities. As such, the city embraces the changing demographics of an aging population by focusing on safe, walkable streets, better housing and transportation options, access to key services and community engagement opportunities for all ages. As Newport plans for major redevelopment of its downtown and economic base, the city and its partners -- including AARP Vermont and the Newport City Renaissance Corp. -- are looking at ways to prepare for a rapidly aging population.
