The population of the greater Worcester area has grown by more than seven percent in the past decade, which is nearly double the rate of population growth in the state of Massachusetts. Why is moving to Worcester such a popular trend? Perhaps it's because Worcester bills itself as a "smart city." It boasts a large concentration of universities and colleges, and the result is a population of forward-thinking citizens who contribute to a lively cultural scene.

What else has convinced so many people to call up a few Worcester moving companies and plan their cross-country relocation? Although it is small in terms of population, it resembles a large city in terms of convenience. The public transportation system is extensive and reliable, and no matter where you live in Worcester, there is always a good restaurant nearby.

Economy:
Worcester is a vital center of trade in New England. Its economy is more diverse than those of many other cities, which helps it to weather downturns in any particular sector. One of the largest industries in the area is higher education, and the nearby colleges and universities have helped Worcester to acquire a highly skilled labor force.

Manufacturing comprises another important part of the area economy. Products created in Worcester include machine tools and dies, shoes and other leather goods, woven and knitted goods (including woolens and carpets), and firearms, airplane parts and other steel goods.

History:
The first settlements of the Worcester area (which was called Quinsigamond by the resident Native American tribes) were attempted in 1678. Unfortunately, the onset of King Phillip's War interrupted the settlers' plans, and the colony was abandoned. A second attempt in 1684 was also abandoned due to the hostility of neighboring Indians, and the permanent settlement of Worcester did not succeed until 1718. Some historians believe that the settlers (who were Protestants) named their city in honor of the final battle of Lord Cromwell, which occurred in the English town of Worcester.

At the time of the settlement, traveling to and from Worcester was made difficult by the bad roads. The first organized method of transportation was a line of stagecoaches from Boston to Hartford, which passed through Worcester. The new town became a regular stop on several stagecoach routes, and this contributed to its growth.

Tourism:
All of central Massachusetts, including Worcester, is known for its brilliant fall foliage. Many families plan their vacations around the changing of the colors. Hiking, bicycling or driving through the countryside are popular pastimes. Visitors also enjoy taking part in the local scene by picking apples or attending one of the many fall festivals in the area.
Worcester is also a popular destination in the summer, because its northern latitude helps it to avoid the heat waves that blanket the southeastern United States. No matter when you're visiting, be sure to tour the historic downtown area. The Worcester Art Museum, Worcester Historical Museum and Higgens Armory Museum never fail to have captivating exhibits, and downtown Worcester also has many galleries, boutiques and restaurants sure to catch the interest of any art lover.

  • The USS Worcester, a cruiser that weighed more than 14,000 tons, was christened in honor of the town of Worcester. It sailed the seas from 1948 to 1972, when it was sold for scrapping.
  • Five of the colleges and universities in the Worcester region were founded prior to 1900.
