Worcester is in central MA, close enough to Boston to commute via bus or commuter rail, and link up with the T (MBTA) subway system or the city bus system.
Yes, but how is it pronounced? See http://www.worcestermass.com/pronounce/worcestercounty.shtml#worcester
Driving: driving anywhere in MA is best compared to driving in Europe. If you've been there, you'll know what I mean. Here's a perfect example:
Kelly Square - There are 5 or 6 roads converging at non-right angles, no traffic lights, and, I think, 2 stop signs. Here's a wonderful overhead view, and a nice time-lapse video.
Speaking of signs, I saw one in Boston that said "Form One Lane" not - this lane ends, or merge left, mind you. They leave it up to you to figure out.
Urban Renewal: the city has gone through a lot already, and more is planned. It's a lot like LoDo in Denver, or BelMar or Olde Town Arvada. They are getting the most money that's ever left Boston in MA history to fix up Worcester.
