A substantial increase in the population growth rate of northern New England is revealed by the 1970 Federal Census. Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine have experienced relatively low population growth rates since the mid-1800s, or even undergone population losses. Population increases have been greatest in the Burlington, Vermont, area, in southern New Hampshire, and in south coastal Maine. Extensive construction of limited access highways, a surge in second home ownership, an increase in recreational facilities, and the establishment of new plants and offices in northern New England are related to current growth patterns
