North Troy is an incorporated village within the town of Troy, and it has its own incorporated-place boundary, 1.9 square miles, all of it land. At the 2020 census 631 people lived here.

A border village
The town around the village was chartered under the name Missisquoi, and it once turned out more than 400 short tons of cast iron a year. Before the Civil War, Dr. Levi Moore and A. J. Rowell were Underground Railroad agents in Troy. Just downriver from North Troy, the Missisquoi’s north and south branches come together at Highwater, Quebec, and the river runs about 15 miles through Quebec before it comes back into Vermont at Richford.
Route 243 is a state highway only 1.181 miles long, and all of it lies inside the village. It starts at the border, where it continues as Quebec’s Route 243, and runs southeast beside the railroad; at the village edge it becomes Railroad Street, crosses Elm Street and School Street, turns south as South Street, meets Main Street and ends at Route 105 on North Pleasant Street. Route 105 follows North Pleasant Street east, crosses the east branch of the Missisquoi, and becomes East Main Street as it heads southeast along the railroad tracks.

The crossing at Highwater
The North Troy and Highwater border crossing sits about halfway between the village and the Quebec crossroads of Highwater. Canada opened its customs office for this road in 1844, four miles north in Potton, and moved it to the border in 1933. The United States built its first formal station here in 1937 and replaced it in 2009, but the 1937 building still stands about 150 feet south of the new one. It’s one of ten 1930s border station buildings left in Vermont, and it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.
Carnivals and a hometown colonel
North Troy held Winter Carnivals from 1940 to 1942, with dog sled races and ski jumping contests, and 4,000 people came in 1942. Until 2007 the village kept a police department of its own instead of depending on the town constable or the county sheriff. Amasa Tracy, who won the Medal of Honor for his command of the old Vermont Brigade at Cedar Creek in 1864, later worked as a customs agent along the border and lived in North Troy for at least six years as deputy collector of customs.
On the map, start on North Pleasant Street, then follow East Main Street, Railroad Street, Highland Avenue, Elm Street and Main Street across the village; every one of those streets is printed. The village remains active today.
