The Town of Warren is a small rural community located midway between Worcester and Springfield. It was first settled in the 1720's as part of the Quaboag Plantation. Warren's notable physical attributes are its hills and the Quaboag River, which runs through its center.
For many years the economic base was agriculture and the fabric industry. The latter was the result of the location of many mills along the Quaboag River. Today, only two mills and half a dozen farms remain. In recent years Warren has attracted many former city dwellers who still commute to work in the cities of Worcester or Springfield and return to this peaceful community at the end of their day.
