Vermont is an unincorporated community in Howard Township, Howard County, Indiana, United States platted in January 1848. The founders also then already had a store set up in Vermont.[3] In the late 19th century it was a German campground.[4] Vermont was in the flooding zone when the Wildcat Creek Reservoir was constructed in 1957, and it never recovered from that. Vermont was once the home of the "Vermont Covered Bridge" which now sits in Highland Park in Kokomo, Indiana.[5] It is part of the Kokomo Metropolitan Statistical Area.
