Description of Holden, Massachusetts
The Town of Holden is a small suburban community located in central Massachusetts just south of the Wachusett Mountain ski area and west of the City of Worcester. Holden is a residential town with a limited business district and one industrial park off of the main street, which is Route 122A. The town is governed by an elected five member board of selectmen and an appointed town manager and is known for its forward thinking management philosophies. The townspeople are very aware of the need to keep the small town "charm" and at the same time broaden the tax base with appropriate light industrial and small commercial businesses.
Central Massachusetts, bordered by Paxton and Rutland on the west; Princeton on the north; and Sterling, West Boylston, and Worcester on the east and southeast. Holden is about 46 miles west of Boston, 55 miles northeast of Springfield, and 183 miles from New York City.
