meh - 10/24/2006
i lived in worcester for two years. it's really dirty and if you don't like to drink and dance you will find hardly anything to do here. i grew up right outside of boston and prefer boston much more. however, if you live right outside of worcester in the towns of leister and spencer, you will have a much better time. it's a lot cleaner and safer. some of our dorms on fruit street were broken into and homeless men climbed in the
