In a joint research effort published by the Worcester Business Journal, the WBJ and Worcester Regional Research Bureau report that immigrants are more likely than native citizens to start their own businesses and obtain bachelor's degrees. They make up 36 percent of the business owners in Worcester, New England's second-largest city.
The Research Bureau serves the public interest of Greater Worcester by conducting independent, non-partisan research and analysis of public policy issues to promote informed public debate and decision-making.
