Plymouth is a rural town in central Vermont, set among wooded hills, small farms, ponds, and mountain valleys in the Green Mountain region. The town includes several small settlements, with Plymouth Notch being the best-known because of its preserved historic buildings and connection to President Calvin Coolidge. Much of the surrounding landscape remains forested and lightly developed, with roads following valleys and ridgelines rather than forming a dense urban center.
