You’re not supposed to put them out overnight

Sounds like a solid plan.

I don’t think so. Whenever I come to Worcester it’s pretty easy to find parking.

The city is seriously depressing in February.

Hard to say without knowing what your interests are. Do you have to go to Worcester anyway and are deciding if you're staying longer? If so, there's definitely stuff to do. Coming here in Winter just because? There might be better places to go within 80 minutes this time of year.
The Worcester Art Museum is quite nice.
If you have kids, EcoTarium is great; my son and I go there a lot.
Tower Hill Botanic Garden is nice, but you'll be missing most of it in Winter.

It needs better transit, like the busses are good compared to smaller cities but could be more frequent. Same with train service

Elm Park, Columbus Park, Coolidge Road, Upper Burncoat, Tatnuck, Forrest, Wheelock, Becker, Massasoit, September/Courtland area... ...there are a ton of great neighborhoods. With sidewalks.

Big plastic Trash bins for everyone instead of dumb bags that rip and allow animals to tear them open overnight

Most definitely yes! There's a small museum all about Worcester which is worth seeing. It won't take long to go through and it's pretty inexpensive. You'd be surprised by the historic significance of either the city or things that happened in the city over the ages.There are historic homes if you're into that kind of thing. I find the architecture of the downtown and some of the other areas pretty cool. There are some really beautiful buildings all over the city. Worcester has a big revolutionary war history if you're into that. There's also significant native american history in Worcester that is not talked about very much. Worcester has some outstanding parks and a lot of green space if you're into hiking, walking, etc. You could easily spend a day doing historical touring or a day doing cultural things or even a day at a minor league baseball game and eating your way through the city. It's a big city

St Vincent’s validates free parking for patients fwiw. The patient experience (including parking) at UMass scared me away forever.

If I'm going downtown it's usually for a purpose and I don't have time to drive around and around looking for a free, safe spot.

Damnn :/ Polar park area is definitely a stretch. Downtown on most days you can get away with it.

I do when I have to go downtown and polar park area. Can never find a free spot. Shit, I went to Baystate Brewery and had to pay to park.

Facts, if I was a thief; this weekend I'd be volunteering at a church.

If people were able to get around without needing the parking that would also help. But public transit is a joke here, barely hanging on to serve primarily those "undesirable people" who will never be able to buy into the car based transportation system.

I think they take card now. I know they started to during the pandemic, not sure if they kept it up or not. I usually pay cash there regardless.
