one time my freshman year me and my friend (both women) walked down park ave at midnight and were fine. i lived with little fear back then, but ive never had problems walking. some clark students will complain abt homeless asking for money and shit, but if that’s the worse to happen to them then boohoo. but yeah, just don’t walk alone at night, there’s a clark escort bus thing that can drive you from place to place at night if need be. walking down the streets immediately surrounding clark (charlotte, maywood and florence) even at night always feels safe to me, especially on weekends bc students will be all over. basically, don’t let the area deter you! it will be okay!

also my bf lives down main street a bit more towards dunkin, I don’t like walking that way after dark so he always drives me

also forgot to mention that there’s these lyft pass things where you can call a lyft within a mile radius or something to pick you up as well

my bf lives in a 4bd in main south and his was also $400, it tripled in cost

also important: he lives in a triple decker lol

I would like more Aldi stores in lower income areas in Worcester, and cheap grocery stores in general. Price Chopper is okay, but apparently there used to be an Aldi on Webster, would be a game changer for me. Going to Lincoln is a hassle.
