ADT-Monitored Home Security Service in Westborough, MA

Westborough is a town in Worcester County, Massachusetts, United States. The population was 21,567 at the 2020 Census, in higher than 7,000 households. Incorporated in 1717, the town is governed under the New England retrieve town meeting system, headed by a five-member elected Board of Selectmen whose duties tally up licensing, appointing various administrative positions, and calling a town meeting of citizens annually or whenever the compulsion arises.

Before recorded time, the area now known as Westborough was a well-travelled crossroads. As forward as 7,000 BCE, prehistoric people in dugout canoes followed the Sudbury and Assabet Rivers to their headwaters in search of quartzite for tools and weapons.

From 1200 to 1600 CE, seasonal migrations brought Nipmuc Indians to hunt and fish close Cedar Swamp and Lake Hoccomocco. Using Fay Mountain as a landmark, Indians crisscrossed Westborough upon well-worn paths: the old Connecticut Path leading west from Massachusetts Bay; the Narragansett Trail leading south, and the trail (along the present Milk Street) leading to Canada.
