Lawrence is a revitalizing Merrimack River mill city with striking brick architecture, a lively immigrant food scene, growing arts and cultural events and riverfront trails—great for a travel therapist seeking variety, good local eats and comfortable multi‑week stays.
Weekend options are abundant: Boston and Lowell are a short commuter‑rail hop or drive away, offering museums, theaters, pro sports and diverse dining so you won’t run out of things to do.
