Where people and their families come from — the ancestries they identify with and where they were born.
A jump of 10 percentage points in the overseas-born population since 2011 marks a shift in Vermont. Now, 37.8% of residents were born in another country, which is far above the national figure of 27.7%. This has created a community with a diverse mix of backgrounds, particularly from China and India.
The ancestries people most identify with.
English, Chinese, and Australian ancestries are the most common, each making up over 23% of the population. Other significant groups include Irish and Scottish ancestry.
Australia and the largest overseas communities.
