Ware has 10,048 residents (give or take 21) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B01003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B01003?g=060XX00US2501572880, checked 2026-10-19), about 292 people per square mile.
Ware is about 24 miles from the Census center point for Worcester in a straight line and covers 34.375 square miles of land (Census 2024 Gazetteer internal points and land area, https://www2.census.gov/geo/docs/maps-data/data/gazetteer/2024_Gazetteer/, checked 2026-10-19).
Of the 4,439 occupied homes in Ware, 7% heat with natural gas, 50% with heating oil, 16% with electricity and 12% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=060XX00US2501572880, checked 2026-10-19).
Ware has 20 points more oil heat than Hampshire County as a whole, where 30% of homes burn oil, and 5 points less electric heat than the county's 21% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US25015, checked 2026-10-19).
Heating oil is the largest single fuel in Ware at 50%, ahead of electricity at 16%, so the usual job here is an oil boiler or furnace coming out and a cold-climate heat pump going in, with the oil tank removed.
Ware has 4,843 housing units, 37% built before 1940 and 71% before 1980, with 15% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=060XX00US2501572880, checked 2026-10-19).
The median Ware home was built in 1960 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=060XX00US2501572880, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 5.5 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=060XX00US2501572880, checked 2026-10-19).
Ware has 10 points more pre-1940 homes than Hampshire County as a whole (27%) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=050XX00US25015, checked 2026-10-19). An older stock means more insulation upgrades before the heat pump goes in.
57% of Ware homes are single-family detached, 27% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 7% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=060XX00US2501572880, checked 2026-10-19).
28% of Ware homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=060XX00US2501572880, checked 2026-10-19), so beside the 57% detached houses there is a real share of jobs where the landlord, not the resident, signs the quote.
