RE: Burlington, VT: The good, the bad, and the ugly part 2

Yeah, I think part of it is inflation, but there is also other stuff at play I think. Some areas are just more expensive. When the average cost of a dish is $20, then drinks are $5 a piece, plus an appetizer at $10 or more, it all adds up. Especially if you are out walking around and you feel like having more than one drink because you don't have to worry about driving. The drug thing is a tough one for sure. I think there are a lot of reasons. Some of them not as unbelievable as you might think. Prescription drug addiction hasn't helped with that either. Once you see how someone can progress from Oxy to heroin on the street, it's a bit easier to understand.
