Central Massachusetts city, 1 hour west of Boston by rail — historically an industrial city, now a college town anchored by 9+ colleges (the College of the Holy Cross, Clark University, Worcester Polytechnic Institute, UMass Medical). Downtown Worcester and the Canal District (the recently-revitalized arts-and-restaurant zone) are the walkable cores. US has no DNV; ESTA 90 days. Massachusetts state income tax (5% flat). The structural draws are meaningful sub-Boston pricing while staying inside the Boston commute orbit, deep college-town density, and access to central New England (Sturbridge, Old Sturbridge Village).
