All of Massachusetts is bluer than OK and has good schools.

My sense is you do not need to be anywhere even a little city-like for this tile/reno business to succeed. We have a shortage of contractors and customers go on wait lists. If he’s simply willing to return calls he will have more work than he can handle is my hunch. Please, do come, we need him.

Worcester would not be my first choice. It’s a slightly higher crime and slightly depressed area and not as pretty compared to the rest of MA.

When you vacationed here, what is your favorite thing/place/memory. Suggest you go there.

Thanks!! He’s gotten a ton of work here as well just by answering calls and showing up and having integrity. He stays busy on word of mouth alone and one GC who subs him out for all of his tile work. I’m glad to know there’s a need!

Seconding what the above poster said. A good tiler will find plenty of work anywhere in the state. And while some may travel to other parts of New England like another poster suggested, it almost certainly won't be necessary to stay busy.

If you want (slightly) more affordable areas than greater Boston, the 5 colleges region around Amherst/North Hampton and southern Berkshire County both have plenty of upper income residents who will pay well for quality work.
