The City of Winooski was established on March 7, 1922. We are located in Northwest Vermont, just across the Winooski River from Burlington at the heart of Chittenden County. Winooski’s 1.43 square miles is home to about 7,300 residents. Our award-winning “Smart Growth” downtown, beautiful Winooski River, and vibrant business sector make Winooski a very dynamic and exciting place to live and work. We are also proud to be a designated Refugee Resettlement community and home to many diverse newcomers to our country. As the most diverse community in the state, and with over 30 languages spoken by residents, our community offers a cultural richness not available in many other places in Vermont. Whether you’re visiting one of our wonderful downtown restaurants, exploring the exciting history of this former mill town, or taking a leisurely stroll on the beautiful River Walk path, we hope you’ll visit soon!
