They built housing and aren’t a retirement home for rich boomers who like to ski and golf.

I just looked on Zillow at house prices in Vermont and there are some fucking good deals, but not in the really desirable areas like where you probably want to live

They’re likely not good deals. They just look good to out of state money.

I'm seeing huge fixer uppers on 2+ acres for sub $250K well outside the main population centers

You need to be in vermont to understand how feasible these places are. The work required for any deals is usually major and getting the labor to do it is a long waiting list.
