Why Live in Ira

Ira, Vermont, is a small rural community along Vermont State Route 133, known for its rugged hills, farmsteads, and tranquil country roads. Named after Ira Allen, the town lacks a village center, stoplights, and a post office, appealing to those seeking secluded living away from city life. With a population of around 500, Ira offers a close-knit community where homes are spread across generous acreage, surrounded by pastures, pines, and rolling hills. Architectural styles range from 18th-century Cape Cods and colonial-style homes to modern ramblers and custom-built mountain cottages. The area boasts a low crime risk, making it safer than the national average.

Residents enjoy local features such as the Bird Mountain Wildlife Management Area, which offers hiking trails and wildlife observation points. Community activities at the Ira Town Hall include yoga sessions and strength-training classes for older adults. Nearby, the West Rutland Art Park and the Carving Studio and Sculpture Center provide artistic outlets, while West Rutland Park offers sports fields, a playground, and a dog park. Lake St. Catherine State Park, located 10 miles west, features a sandy beachfront, boat rentals, campgrounds, and picnic areas.

Despite its remote feel, Ira is only 9 miles west of Rutland, providing access to larger amenities such as supermarkets, diverse restaurants, and big-box stores. The Ira School District pays tuition to neighboring towns, offering school choice through Vermont's Public High School Choice Act. Commuting is car-dependent, with Vermont State Route 133 being the main road through town. Rutland Regional Medical Center is about 10 miles east, and Rutland Southern Vermont Regional Airport is less than 15 miles away.
