Worcester

(n) second-largest city in Massachusetts. Not much to see from the highway, but the city actually has some beautiful old neighborhoods, affordable housing, good schools, and a comparatively low crime rate. It is also a no-frills industrial wasteland, very Lovecraftian in parts. Famed for its diners, punk scene and attitude. Nobody here wants to hear any crap from YOU, understand? good. Dollah-fifty.



Worcester
The second largest city in Massachussetts. Historically a mill town and source of industry, Worcester is trying to re-invent itself and attract culture. It will be interesting if it manages to do so before Boston co-opts it as a 'bedroom community'. There are many great restaurants here, a good music scene, the Worcester Art Museum, the Higgins Armory Museum, nine colleges (UMass, WPI, Assumption, for example), several nice parks, some industry and biotech, etc. Like Boston, there are places you don't want to go after dark alone. (esp. Main South) Unlike Boston, you're not living on ramen and ketchup to make rent, and you have to work a little at finding something fun to do. You decide. I've never seen a garbage storm. Also historically known as Wormtown, known to friends as Woosta!
Example:
Realtor: You know, Boston is less than an hour away! Out of state person thinks: Really? Cool! Person who lives in/near Worcester thinks: Yeah, but the commute in the morning takes almost two hours, depending on when you start! Or you could take the commuter rail, and hope they've fixed the lateness problem...
Hey, you ever been to the 111 Chop House, Opia 1541, or Zipangos in Woosta! ?


Worcester
Worcester is a city in the state of Massachusetts in the United States of America. It is the second largest city in New England. A 2006 estimate put the population at 175,898.

Worcester has been awarded Americas City five times as well as the 9th most livable city in America by Forbes. Contrary to Riflemen Flemmis assesment, Worcester has no slums. It does have some rough areas like any other city and thats a stretch. The crime rate is exceedingly low for a city its size. In fact shootings and violent crime are rare.

I have lived in many cities in my lifetime and Worcester is by far the cleanest and safest. Urban decay is almost non-existent with the exception of a few abandoned factories. Even the so-called bad areas of the city are clean and intact. Worcester has been voted "Americas City" five times!!

Anyone who believes Worcester is slummy is delusional. Maybe they should take a drive through Holyoke or Springfield.
Example:
Worcester is one of only a few cities to win the National Civic League's coveted "All-America City Award" five times


Worcester
A perfect city, if your definition of perfect is synonymous with shitty.

If Worcester was the target of a nuclear attack, I can't imagine anyone outside of the blast zone actually caring that it was gone.
Example:
You've never been to Worcester?! Think of all the depressing shades of gray you could see there!


Worcester
SO FOLLOWS A WORCESTER MAN'S DEFINITION:

See, here's how the shit goes. Worcester is in the middle MA, There are 52 elementary schools (Tatnuck sucks), 4 middle schools (Sullivan, East, Burncoat, and Forest Grove The first 3 kick Forest Grove's ass on a daily basis), and 4 high schools (South, Burncoat, North, and Doherty). Though some people don't appriciate Worcester, it kicks more ass than Jet Li, Jakie Chan, and all those other asian dudes combined. Though South is the best, 2 of the best local bands (Bury Your Dead Victory Records and Four Year Strong I Surrender Records) were both from Doherty. Most --If not all-- high school sports games take place at Foley Stadium, which has several ill-legitamit entrances that haven't been fixed in the recent renevations (hallaluja). If you watch these entrances during games you can see people sneaking in.

FUN FACTS-
Worcester...
Is the first city to have 3-deckers
Is known for it's accent (dropping "R"s, droping "g"'s at the ends of words)
Is the city where birth control was invented
Is the city where heppatitus-a mutated into Heppatitus-b
Was a crucial point in the womens'rights movement
Boasts low prices on almost anything (Houses for the price of boston appartments, cronic for $5 a gram according to Cody)
(Though I've only seen them in the tatnuck magnet school yard) is the home of many garbage storms

People that are just passing through Worcester on there way somewhere else and talk shit about worcester while there there ussually don't ussually reach there destination.

One favorite location of Worcester is historic South Community High School. Many people speculate as to the reson for the schools design (Many large concrete rooms pods containing uppwards of 10 classrooms using dividerers as classrooms). Some think that it was built like this so that multiple classes could be taught by a single teacher, others say that it was designed by a hippie from california and that that's how they had built schools in california at the time.
Example:
Shane from Silverstien at The Paladium: It's really great to be her in Worster- that's how you pronounce it right- Worster? Worcester, Worchester? Woosta --Woostah--Woostah. Okay then, Woostah.


Worcester
A dumpy city in the middle of Massachusetts that was once a hub of industrial activity and commerce. Now it is the home of shifty characters, rotting three-deckers, and unique garbage storms. Anyone with the money to move out eventually does, unless they are an idiot.
Example:
A visitor to Worcester would be ill-advisted to walk down Main Street after dark, unless they are looking for a beating or third-rate prostitute with AIDS.


Worcester
Worcester is a mid-sized city in central MA. Worcester is best described as a city that has all the things you don't want in your city(i.e. crime, bad schools, bad roads, filthy industrial areas, numerous liberal arts colleges etc), and none of the things you do want in your city (i.e. nice restaurants, safe parks, culture, a downtown, something to do, etc). If you want to get an idea for what Worcester looks like, drive into a major city. There's a good chance you'll find yourself driving through a run down urban neighborhood that has an alarming number of sketchy looking take out places, far more bars than one would think could stay open and an uncomfortable urge to lock your doors. Imagine an area the size of a city like this. Toss in a dozen or so colleges, a few industrial areas, a couple sketchy parks and a "downtown" consisting of a half-dozen medium sized office buildings and an alarming number of drug dealers. Congrats, you're picturing Worcester.

Now all this doesn't necessarily add up to a bad thing, far from it. Worcester can actually be a wonderful place to live for some people. The key to being happy in Worcester is knowing what's wonderful about it and not minding what kinda sucks about it. If you're the kind of person who loves cheap and dirty apartments, cheap and dirty bars, cheap and dirty restaurants (especially diners, Worcester literally invented them), and cheap and dirty college students, well Worcester is just perfect for you.
Example:
"You live in Worcester?! Are you crazy?"

"Why not? There's three good pizza places, two good chinese places, eight bars and thirty seven dorm buildings within walking distance of my dirt cheap apartment."

PRONOUNCIATION;

most that are not from the north east pronounce it as wor-ches-ter how ever the CORRECT pronounciation would be "wuh-stah", "wi-stah" or "wister" (usually rhymes with sister or mister) it all depends one what part of the city your from. the south and west sides pronounce it wustah, and the east side pronounces it wisstah. alot of other out of towners who have trouble pronouncing the name, but no its not pronounced how its spelled call it "woo-stah", usually making fun of new englanders accents.

City Conditions & Neighborhoods;

the south side:

Worcester is a medium sized city. starting from downtown, the downtown area is fairly small and is kept pretty nice looking until you go further south down main street and come into the neighborhood known as "Main South" which is probably the slummiest area of the city. It is cluttered with abandonned and burned down three deckers (3 floor family homes build in the 1800's for working class familys in certain ethnic areas) also abanned and burned down ware houses, factories etc...but most of the inner city looks like that main south just has the worst of it. also has the highest crime rate in the city, and notorious for its Kilby St. Posse, Vice Lord and Latin King gangs.

the east side:

most known for being a prodominantly italian section of the city, Belmont Street(bell hill/north east), Shrewsbury Street (the resteraunt row/direct east), and Grafton and Hamilton streets (Grafton Hill/ south east). although going south east closer towards Kelly Sq. and Vernon Hill which is directly south of Grafton Street is known for its Polish and Irish neighborhoods. all of these neighborhoods are notorious for their three deckers and pretty slummy neighborhoods (Except shrewbury street) until you drive out of the inner city into the middle class and upper class suburbs. the East Sides most known gangs are PVE (the plumly village east projects, Godbody, and Eastern Ave.

North Side:
the north east side consists of Lincoln Street and the Great Brook Valley projects (known for its MOB Outlaw gang)these projects had a much higher crime rate in the late 80's and early 90's when it had lots of riots and shootings, after the riots died down the neighborhood started to get pretty cleaned up but is still known for its drugs and gang violence. it's ironic because the Great Brook Valley projects are actually located on the upper north east side in the suburbs of lincoln street. the north west is probably the richest, cleanest, and nicest part of the city...where winter hill, and salsbury street are located, there are alot of old mansions and beautiful home slocated in this section of the city, also the oldest park in the country Elm Park, is located on this side of the city. ALot of historic places are found here.

WEST SIDE:
going more outter west towards Tatnuck Sq. which is a known irish area and also a very nice suburban family area of the city. but going out of tatnuck sq. closer into to the city you come to newtown sq. which is a known jewish area. once you pass newton sq. you are going south and come back to the main south and slummy ghetto areas of the city known for shootings, gangs, drugs, and prostitution. but if you state on the outskirts of city, or drive all the way down main street passed all of the slums and ghettos of main south you come out to webster sq. which is a pretty nice working/middle class area of the city.

worcester was recently givin the "All American City" award. and is known for its underground music scene and wonderful resteraunts. most of the city is consisted of slums but the suburbs are alot nicer and cheaper then those in Boston.
