Affordable housing and better public transportation.I

Civic pride. Worcester is a great city. It isn't perfect, but it has a lot to offer.

Worcester is affordable compared to most places east of Worcester, which is one of the worst housing markets in the country. It's about on par with the more bougie places in Western Mass, but still much more expensive than anywhere that hasn't been gentrified to shit already.
