Lowell Overview

A hub of higher learning and an excellent place to call home for anyone considering a move to the New England region, Lowell is a proud and charming locale in the heart of Massachusetts. With a local history stretching back to the 1800s and a dynamic, ever-growing local population, this bustling city is second only to Boston in the metropolitan area.

What is the history of Lowell?

Initially settled as a mill town, Lowell was officially incorporated in 1826, acting as a home to a large number of textile workshops during the Industrial Revolution, ranking among one of the nation's highest leading producers by the 1850s. Despite being hit hard by the Great Depression, the city rebounded during World War II, helping to craft needed items such as parachutes, and by the 1970s the city had embraced technology, acting as home to Wang Labs among many more. The 1990s saw an emphasis upon infrastructure, with several university buildings and a new ballpark being added to the city limits.

How is the weather in Lowell?

Those enjoying an apartment in Lowell can expect typical east coast weather, including four distinct seasons. From the hot, humid dog days of summer to the chilly and oft-snow filled winters, from scenic leaf-filled autumns to flower and precipitation-heavy springs, this New England city has it all.

How do I get around town?

Bus service is in high supply around the city, with rail also provided thanks to the local MBTA, including service into Boston. Still, many of those calling a Lowell rental home rely on a personal car or truck for most of their daily needs, although taxis, ride sharing services and even bicycling remain popular in the city as well. Boston Airport offers multiple flights ever day, and is reached with ease.

What is the Lowell commute like?

Interstate 495 is the most popular major roadway near the city, although U.S. Route 3 is another option. While crossing the downtown scene is usually an easy feat, those commuting to Boston proper will want to allow plenty of extra time during most typical work day mornings and afternoons, with traffic plagued by consistent road construction and over-congestion.

What are the local media outlets?

Print news is dominated locally by 'The Sun', and WCAP is the city's long-running home for talk radio. Other formats including classical, modern rock and urban hits can also be found with ease, and 91.5 FM is the popular indie rock home of UMASS. Major network broadcasting options are likewise plentiful, ranging from NBC to ABC.

Why live in Lowell, MA?

Home to a wide array of local employers ranging from medical labs to universities, this home of over 100,000 residents is a truly ideal spot to get to know. Brimming with hometown pride and plenty of amenities, ranging from local shopping and plenty of public transportation to area nightclubs and a thriving arts district, Lowell apartments combine the best of Massachusetts living with an abundance of know-your-neighbor small town ambiance.

What Lowell landmarks should I see?

Literary fans will want to pay a visit to the birthplace of famed author Jack Kerouac's birthplace, and Lowell Cemetery acts as final resting home for many of the region's previous politicians and civic leaders. Western Avenues Studios is a hotspot of artistic activity, and the Vandenberg Esplanade is a scenic delight located along the banks of the Merrimack River, complete with biking paths and plenty of eateries.

What is there to do around Lowell?

Enjoy a National Park Boat Tour, or connect with the city's lengthy history with a trip to the Boott Cotton Mills Museum, both a short drive from most apartments for rent in Lowell. The Luna Theatre shows independent films just about every night of the week, and the Standing Room Only Players help take local musicals to the next level. Hunt for vinyl finds at RRRecords, or enjoy some live music at the famed Hi Hat Lounge.

Any annual festivals or Lowell events to know?

The annual New England Golden Gloves tournament brings boxing fans of all ages to the city, and the Lowell Summer Music Series is a popular ongoing event that always draws a crowd to Boarding House Park every June-August.

Where are the nearby vacation spots?

Take the train into Boston proper for a weekend of lobster rolls, Red Sox games and those famous New England museums, or simply hit the coastal glory of Cape Cod, both easy vacation destinations from most Lowell apartments. 

Where is the best place to move in Lowell?

From the university district to the popular family-dominated rentals of the Highlands area, apartments in Lowell are available to suit a wide range of lifestyles, budgets and amenity needs. So why let another day go by without a new Massachusetts rental to call your own? Start your search today!
