Where to live in Vermont?
I've had my heart set on Vermont for years, but I'm a little lost on picking out a town or region I'd like to move to. Can anyone help suggest a place that meets my criteria?
-Very secluded
-In the heart of the Green Mountains
-A relative distance from the bigger cities like Barre, Burlington and Rutland
-Where land/houses are on the cheap side(I know most of Vermont is inexpensive, but I'm looking for the lower end)
-That large plots of land(for privacy and a small amount of farming) are often available
-In central to northern Vermont
-A small population in the town and those around it
Ideally, I'm looking for a real getaway, tucked in the mountains, so distance to stores and other amenties isn't a big deal.
Edit: I should also add that I don't want to be in a town that tourists flock to for skiing/snowboarding or fall foliage sightseeing. That would probably go without saying, but just thought I'd throw that in. Thanks :D

I meant like one of the towns that frequently shows up on websites and the like, like Stowe. Obviously, no place is going to be free from tourists, but there are some that are more likely to be destination locations, that's all I meant.

You just described anywhere in Washington/Caledonia counties. However, if you don't want to deal with tourists, you won't be happy here. Tourism is a huge source of income for Vermont's economy and during at least 3 seasons of the year (summer, fall, and winter) tourists are everywhere. Vermont is beautiful and that's why people come here. If you don't want to live somewhere that is admired for beauty, don't move here.
