East Arlington is a suburban town that was developed beginning in the 1950s. At its peak, East Arlington had a population of over 10,000 people. However, due to suburban sprawl and increased traffic congestion as well as other factors such as the recession and rising costs of living throughout Vermont (particularly Burlington), East Arlington's population has decreased by nearly half since its peak. As a result of this decline in population and home values, many businesses have closed down or moved away from East Arlington over the past few years. This has led to an overall decrease in revenue for local government entities such as schools and police departments which are forced to rely more heavily on property taxes to fund their operations.

Despite these challenges however, there are some positive aspects to East Arlington's current situation including an increase in home ownership rates among residents who are able to afford it and an increase in rental housing availability due to decreased demand for homes within the town limits. Additionally, despite falling home values overall there has been little impact on homeowners' equity levels or credit scores which suggests that most residents are still able to maintain their homes despite declining market conditions
