Another adjacent nice town is Holden but I have no idea about rentals.

If you opt for Worcester proper, be sure to inquire about off street parking. As soon as it snows parking is a serious problem.

Holden and the Wachusett region are incredibly tough for rentals. West Boylston might have a few more options, but again, not many at that price, sadly.

I might look a little more to the north and south in that price range. Leominster might have some options.

I rented a small place in Rutland last year, it was a few hundred less than most places in the city but also on the middle of nowhere. You can occasionally find deals like that in that area but there aren’t many apartments because it’s so sparsely populated.

Thanks for all the info! Can you provide more details on off street parking when it snows?

In Worcester it’s mostly street parking odd sides only during snowstorms but they also open up the public garages for free
