Reply to comment by Hoosac_Love in The Wiki entry for New England says that Worcester is part of Greater Boston. by Essarray

We're talking about what's already an area covering over 4 million people. If you want to grow that, with Boston serving as a hub, imagine the traffic with 6 or 8 million people all trying to drive into then out of the city at the same time every day. Let alone getting to the other places without a car

It already feels that way most of the time. I used to work nights and trying to get home at the same time all the kids were going to school in the morning was my own little personal hell

I was talking statistics not actually growing the population in real people.Making Boston look bigger on paper is good for New England I was not speaking actual population growth.
