    "What makes my neighborhood special is when we decorate for Christmas and we do New Year’s or when we celebrate Easter"
  • Trulia User
    "The traffic isn’t too bad but there’s a few spots that are very congested, too many cars parked on the road and homeless people constantly asking for money. Also the roads themselves are horrendous with a bunch of pot holes and should be fixed asap. "
  • Mary C.
    "It may be around the housing projects but it isn’t that scary. Just have to be friendly. It’s close to a Market Basket. Has a public pool in the area as well. There are a couple of school around."
  • Mekayla C.
    "Loud during the school year. College kids are ridiculous, have had property damaged and caught on camera. They have parties on weekends so it gets loud and busy at night in the area. "
  • Christine M.
    "We do not have any block parties etc. We live right by U Mass Lowell and enjoy the activities of the students. Most of the housing is apartments.Lowell has many public events from a-z. Most people attend with their families. Lowell is a small but very cultured city. The park recreation music events are well attended. The city is beautiful in the winter with a wonderful display of holiday lights and events"
  • Christine M.
    "Diverse neighborhood with many local shops for anything that’s needed. Center of a very beautiful downtown restoration. The library and city hall are convenient for all. Many fine reads and activities. Computers for research and tutors for all, the very young on up. Parks are just a few steps away. Many faiths gather around a church and other spiritual locations. U Mass Lowell puts it all together in this city neighborhood. Families are plentiful and always welcome."

    "This neighborhood is pretty good for the most part. I’ve lived here for 17 years. Some new neighbors that moved in party an awful lot and I’m hoping that would simmer down since this neighborhood have always been quiet. However, I still would not let my children walk outside alone. "
  • Couponsonly09
