I think Western mass itself needs a better job market. Commuting to Boston is still Boston.
Industries like to cluster, so w. Mass needs different industries.

Agree, which will also be possible with better infrastructure that allows travel among the corridor to Boston, since all those areas can draw from same talent pool, thereby creating opportunities anywhere. Right now, if a company opens up in Worcester, there’s no talent pool to draw from since everyone wants to be near Boston. With a high speed train however you can live in Boston and work in Worcester. Then over time Worcester will be cooler and more hip and draw people wanting to live closer to there. Idk just my thoughts on this.
