Rochester (Vermont)

Rochester is a small town in Vermont. It is known as "The Heart of the Green Mountains" as it is nestled in the White River Valley in the shadow of the Green Mountains.

No buses run through Rochester, so you pretty much have to have a car to get there. Route 100 cuts north-south through town and Route 73 comes in from the West. Watch the speed limits in these small towns because it drops abruptly and the fuzz are vigilant!
