[7] The following buildings and bridges in Montgomery are listed on the National Register of Historic Places:[8] In 2008, the state notified residents of the town, and twelve other towns in the adjacent counties of Lamoille and Orleans, that a review of health records from 1995 to 2006 had revealed that residents within 10 miles (16 km) of the former asbestos mine on Belvidere Mountain had higher than normal rates of contracting asbestosis.

[9][10] A critic replied that the entire basis of the study were three unidentified people who died from asbestosis from 1995 to 2005 out of a total population of 16,700.

Montgomery's economy centers on tourism due to its proximity to Jay Peak Resort.
