The Andovers

Andover and North Andover are located in a lovely section of the Merrimack Valley within commuting distance of Boston. Through careful zoning and judicious use of open space, both towns have retained their individuality and small-town character.

A growing number of high-tech and industrial companies have located in the towns, some in renovated mill buildings in the historic Shawsheen Village and Ballardvale sections of town.

Historic Society

Lucent Technologies, Watts Regulator, Gillette, Vicor, ITT, Genetic Institute and Smith & Nephew Dyonics (maker of microsurgical devices) have facilities in the Andovers. The area’s largest employers are Raytheon, Digital Equipment Corporation, Dynamics Research Corp. and Hewlett-Packard Medical. From big manufacturing companies to small retail merchants in Andover, there are numerous opportunities. Retail and service industries continue to grow.
