Worcester is a hidden gem among the bigger cities. Second largest city in Massachusetts behind Boston. Huge redevelopment push past 5 years (2015-2020). All the big city things for work and play, with still many, many opportunities for cheap housing, etc.

    Values shown are estimated visits by traveling remote workers based on the total amount of trips logged by Nomads.com members. Visits to a place are only counted once per year per user, even if they visit more in that year. Visits are also normalized by overall trips added per month on the site, so if site usage goes up or down it does not affect trends. Not all digital nomads are on Nomads.com, and not all Nomads.com members log their trips. So the data is only indicative.
