Montpelier, Vermont

Montpelier is a city and capital of the state of Vermont in the United States with 7584 residents (U.S. Census 2017). The city is centrally located in the state of the Winooski River and is the smallest state capital of the United States. It is named after the city of Montpellier in France.

History and culture

Montpelier was established as a municipality in 1781, but the first permanent settlement was a log cabin erected in 1787. Montpelier was granted city council in 1791 and became the state capital in 1805 and had 1,200 residents. The town got a railroad in 1849. Street runs parallel to the Winooski River and with this river’s two streams were completed in 1858. The following year the building for the state assembly, Vermont State House, opened. Montpelier gained city status in 1895. The town center, which is located on one surface, was hit by fire in 1875. There were large water floods in 1927 and 1992.

Most of the residents are employed in administration, higher education, insurance and winter tourism. The city has some light industry.

Community College of Vermont, New England Culinary Institute and Vermont College of Fine Arts are among five higher education institutions in Montpelier.

Main attractions are the Vermont State House and the Vermont History Museum. The Green Mountain Film Festival is held annually in Montpelier.

Population

Since 1970, the number of residents has been declining. Due to the large number of jobs within administration, Montpelier’s population increases to about 21,000 on working days.
