Historical U.S. Census Totals for Caledonia County, Vermont

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article shows U.S. Census totals for Caledonia County, Vermont, broken down by municipality, from 1900 to 2000.

Like most areas of New England, Caledonia County is (and has been at all times since well before the 20th century) entirely divided into incorporated municipalities. There is no unincorporated territory.

There are three types of incorporated municipalities in Vermont, towns, cities and villages. As in the other New England states, towns are the basic unit of municipal government. Cities are independent of and equivalent to towns, but differ in their form of government. Villages overlay towns and assume responsibility for some municipal services within their boundaries. Incorporated villages are not found in any of the other New England states, and are less common in Vermont today than they have been in the past. A number of villages have disincorporated over the years, choosing to revert back to full town control; most of those that remain are very small.

The main tables below show municipalities at the town level. For any census, adding up the totals for each town-level municipality should yield the county total. The tables in the New England Historical U.S. Census Totals series differentiate between towns and cities; however, there have never been any cities in Caledonia County. A separate section follows with population totals for villages from 1920 to 2000.
