Lowell was a very important city during the industrial revolution, and was for many years one of the most important industrial cities in the country. The city fell into a long depression when the manufacturing industry began to decline, but the eventual arrival of new industries in the city helped revive the economy, although the total recovery took decades.

When to Search

Staying in the Know

When you discuss accommodations with a Lowell landlord, be sure to let them know why you're moving to town.
