Dunkin Donuts is a donut chain, they take care of the cops and the jakes around. My sister was a mgr in Somerville/Everett at night, cops kept an eye on her. Never had a problem. Lowell. Lawrence FD's, there is a maniac running around. Stay safe my brothers. Lowell and Laurence were mill towns, cheap and good  labor and a power scource, the Merrimac River. But the unions made demands, the owners had their demands and like Bruce Springsteen said in one of his songs: These jobs are going south and never comong back. But now they are leaving Georgia, Alabama, going to Mexico. And Lowell and Lawrence face fires night after night.
 
As Grump says the jobs are gone. Lawrence is 70% minority it is listed as the poorest community in Massachusetts. Population is 86,000 in less than 7 square miles. Mayors staff is under state and/or federal indictments, the Mayor is being sued by the States Attorney General for campaign improprieties.
