If you’re into climbing (or up for trying it!) then there’s a really great community at CRG Worcester where you can meet people! GWLT hosts meet ups for hikes if you’re into the outdoors. Redemption Rock Brewing often have things like trivia nights and comedy shows which can be a great space to meet new people too (and if you’re over 21 they have good beer!) Ralph’s rock diner can be fun too if you’re into more of the bar/dancing scene. They recently had a 90’s karaoke night.
In terms of public transit, the WRTA is free to ride, and depending on where you’re based can be fairly consistent, especially along the main arteries, but it’s definitely worth using the live tracker on their website rather than trying on Google maps or their published timetable. If you’re wanting to get further afield, there’s a reliable train into and out of Boston, and busses to nyc too. For anything like exploring NH/ME etc or even getting away from the city for an afternoon, you’ll probably need a car (or make friends with someone who has one!).
Feel free to dm me if you have any other questions!
