Worcester is a small place in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, in the United States. It's known as an unincorporated community. This means it's a group of homes and businesses that don't have their own local government like a city or town. Instead, it's part of a larger area called Worcester Township.
Worcester is easy to find because it's located right where two main roads meet. These roads are Pennsylvania Route 73 and Pennsylvania Route 363.
What is an Unincorporated Community?
An unincorporated community is a place where people live that isn't officially a city or a town. It doesn't have its own mayor or town council. Instead, it's governed by the larger county or township it's in. This is common in many parts of the United States.
