You are correct!
The answer is 

Answer = 14 There are 14 counties in Vermont. A county is a regional grouping of towns for governmental purposes. County government in Vermont has limited authority and is mainly related to judicial purposes. Reflecting early settlement patterns and political understandings, the 14 counties were formed into two districts with seven counties on either side of the Green Mountains. This regional balance was important when Vermont used to send more than one Representative to the United States Congress but is no longer of great significance. The fourteen counties are: Addison, Bennington, Caledonia, Chittenden, Essex, Franklin, Grand Isle, Lamoille, Orange, Orleans, Rutland, Washington, Windham, and Windsor. Lamoille County is considered to be part of the west district and Washington County part of the east district.
