About Worcester:

Originally a mill town, Worcester sits just less than an hour from downtown Boston and is known for fine restaurants, cultural diversity and affordable housing options. Worcester also is home to the state's finest schools, both public and private.  Although it is the state's 2nd largest city, Worcester has that small town New England feel with many safe family oriented communities.  The Worcester Art Museum, the Higgins Armory Museum, nine colleges, several nice parks, some industry and biotech companies are just a few things that draw people to this area.  Worcester was recently given the "All American City" award.
