I was told Vermont has a great Mohs program

Does it matter to go to a program with a home fellowship if you're potentially interested in doing a Mohs fellowship? Or which program you are in/their level of surgical training?

how competitive is Mohs to get into? Are there stats on # of applicants and # accepted?

i think its extremely competitive, abuot 50% match rate see https://www.sfmatch.org/SpecialtyInsideAll.aspx?id=10&typ=1&name=Procedural%20Dermatology%20%28Mohs%29# statistics tab, 95 applilcants for 58 spots << wow the stressful competition never ends...so even if you're at a top derm program there is still a 50% chance you wont' match Mohs | It is crazy competitive. Also if multiple coresidents are applying makes it more competitive unfortunately.

There are some benefits to doing a program without a Mohs fellowship since the residents get to be more hands on and don't have to compete with fellows for good cases.
