Vernon sur Seine (Normandy - France)

Vernon North Okanagan, Canada

Vernon is the Okanagan's oldest city, settled in 1867. Vernon is the head city of the North Okanagan region.

The total population of the region is currently estimated at 72,000. No longer an area just for retirees seeking a moderate climate, large numbers of urban professional families have discovered the lifestyle benefits of our friendly smaller communities.

Agriculture continues to play a significant role in our economy. Virtually every type of farming can be found in the North Okanagan. Agri-tourism is evolving as an industry in its own right, as tourists are welcomed to experience the farms, orchards and vineyards firsthand.

Tourism continues to grow as a major contributor to our economy. The opening of Rogers Pass and, more recently, the construction of the Coquihalla Highway fully opened the Okanagan Valley to tourists. Visitors are attracted by the moderate climate, spectacular scenery and unlimited recreational opportunities. World class facilities such as Silver Star Mountain Resort & Predator Ridge Golf Resort draw high profile events, giving our area national and international exposure.

Vernon actively seeks tourists. The city is only 30 miles from the Tenn Tom Waterway and some of the Waterway's attractions are only a few miles away in Missippi and Pickens County, Alabama. Visitors are welcomed at the local motel or at one of two new "bed and breakfast inns", both opened in 1996. The City also seeks retirees. Vernon's quiet, family oriented way of life and low cost of living is perfect for retired persons. The even climate and long growing season are also attractive.

Vernon Township, New Jersey, USA

Located in the rolling hills of Sussex County, there lives more than 21,000 people who call Vernon Township their home. Many more people pass through Vernon each year, be it for a day long getaway or to follow the path of the Appalachian Trail.

The independent township of Vernon was established on November 19, 1792. The 68 square miles which marked the town's borders over 200 years ago have not changed since. However, the population of Vernon, which as a mere 1548 people as recently as 1950, has steadily grown since the 1960's, when the ski industry was introduced to the area. Today, the town's growth is best reflected by its school system - its 4800 students make it the largest school system in Sussex County.
