Worcester isn't Boston. Worcester is 50 miles west of Boston and has devolved into somwhat of a shithole. Aside from a couple of Universities it is pretty much garbage. The further west you go the shitier it gets, as in Springfield which is the last major city in MA before you get into New York State. Therefore the residential real estate market in Worcester and surrounding areas is dirt cheap compared to Boston. You will also find Worcester is rife with undesirables whose cultures espouse drugs, violence and murder. And it is not on the coast.
Boston, on the other hand, is on the Atlantic Ocean and is the world's epicenter of academics, medicine and culture. The prices skyrocket in Boston and surrounding towns like Brookline, Newton, Wellesley, etc as their public school systems are second to none and safety is way above average. The southernmost part of Boston is a little tricky because you have the nignogs in Roxbury, Mattapan and Dorchester. A lot of Cape Verdeans in Dorchester and they are absolute subhuman animals who kill one another like it was stepping on an ant. In Cambridge, which is adjacent to Boston, you will find Harvard University and MIT. However, you will also find Prius's with Obama stickers on them, man hating vegitarian douchebags, and male eunuchs who dress like their girlfriends and get "offended" by real men.
If you enjoy the beach, Cape Cod may be of interest although sections of the Cape are infested by welfare recipients and filthy Brazilians.
