Raheb's is the best in Worcester at the best price and I have tried them all being a sartorial connoisseur myself. Raheb can do so much more than most of the tailors in this town can do when it comes to adjustments because he does them all himself.

Feens Country Living in Fitchburg. They've been around as long as I can remember, so they must be doing something right. They're not far off of exit 98 or rt 2 , so pretty easy access.

Try Enchanted Fireside in Worcester. I haven't bought from them but they have serviced my stoves and were pretty good.

One of those $5000+ pellet stoves from QuadraFire or Harman can probably last you about 20+ years. One of the Home Depot/Lowe's $1500 stoves will probably last a lot less, require more frequent repairs, and is probably unsightly (Just a rectangular box type unit).

Man I love when this question is asked on here because it gives me a chance to tell people about Joe Gulli on Rt 9 in Shrewsbury. He’s the absolute man.

I should say Elm Park might be a good fit for you, especially working downtown. Just be aware that it can go from nice to less-nice pretty quickly depending on the block.

Henry’s at Rice Square

Ah thx

Great Brook Valley isn't nearly as bad as it once was (say, in the 80's-90s or even early 00s). Though I wouldn't expect a rental to be available there anyway, so it's kind of moot.

Main South has seen some revitalization recently too, though I'd avoid Main St itself (not just south, all parts) in terms of living on it. Being able to walk to it is fine. I do agree there are better parts of Worcester on average, but I wouldn't rule out a Main South rental at a good price without seeing the area first.

I'd avoid Main Middle more than Main South these days. Not because I felt in danger so much as it just having a sad atmosphere. Passed through the area on foot a couple times, and it was all older 3-deckers with everyone shut inside despite the warm weather, the front porches, streets, and sidewalks pretty deserted.

Seconded.

Just to add more specificity to West Side, try to be in easy walking distance of the following:

1. Pleasant St

2. Chandler St

3. June St between Chandler St and Pleasant St

For the most part this is where the buses run, all of which should give you convenient access to your downtown job if you don't want to deal with parking (free parking is becoming less and less common). Getting to downtown is one of the few things that the bus system here is consistently decent with, at least on weekdays.

The Elm Park area is also on a couple bus routes and decent for outdoor dog walks, plus would put you closer to more interesting things to do.

There’s a Trippi’s on rt 9 in Shrewsbury

Bonardi's on Highland is good.

Perfect fit tailoring downtown

Just saying

What ever you do DO NOT RENT FROM DiRoberto property management they are horrible and the apartments are trash.. they don’t fix anything and will leave you with out a stove or fridge

And I lived there with my dog. (55 lb golden)

145 Front is beautiful. If it’s affordable for you I would highly suggest living there. I really enjoyed my year and a half there.

Living near Indian lake has been great for us- off of Shrewsbury st would be cool, near canal district too.

What does J/s mean? Ik /s means sarcastic

Thank you! I couldn't see anything on the websites! Much appreciated. Stay warm :)
