I worked in this city with all the utility companies for a few months after the natural gas explosions. The area I was in was from the Andover line to around the Cumberland Farms on South Broadway and working nights I never felt uncomfortable there. Many residents talked about lots of issues with drugs both being used and sold in the city and I’m sure with all the police out doing traffic control it was quieter than usual. Still I’ll take a night shift in Lawrence over my usual day work in Waterbury, CT hahaha

Well, I haven't been back to my home state of MA for nearly 20 years, and to tell you the truth, I rarely went to Lawrence except to go to a wonderful Arabic restaurant called Bishops that I insisted upon going to every birthday throughout my teens; after that, the neighborhood where Bishop's was located had gotten too risky to venture into. So I can't say whether or not Lawrence has improved with age or if it has stayed the same. It does look to be in better shape than some of the neighborhoods in CT that we've driven through. Lawrence, Haverhill, Methuen, Andover, North Andover and Lowell are all within the same vicinity; whether or not these all cities are all considered part of the Merrimack Valley I was never sure.

Lawrence, Lynn, and Lowell. The three Ls as they call em. They are sort of like the three shitty cities in Massachusetts. My whole family is from Lynn which I think is the most beautiful of the three but it’s definitely a tough city. As are the other two. They all look pretty similar. Lawrence is probably the most depressing because it’s a little smaller and farther away from Boston. Lynn has more opportunities and it’s like 5 minutes outside Boston.
