Williston is becoming known as one of the fastest growing towns in the state of Vermont. Williston’s routes began in agriculture, with a very rural, farmland heavy environment. The town was settled in the late 1700s. Among Williston’s earliest settlers was Thomas Chittenden, who later became Vermont's first governor. The town’s population is quickly growing, with 9,870 people as of 2018. Just under 10 miles from Burlington, it’s quickly becoming a popular retail area, while still exuding a small town feel you come to expect in Vermont.
