Once a peaceful, decent resort getaway for out-of-towners back in the day, Silver Lake is far from what it used to be. Situated near the Tewksbury line in Wilmington, Massachusetts, Silver Lake is a shitty excuse for a town beach. A cesspool of mutated fish, trash, and chemicals swirl the dirty water. The beach is open to the public during the summer months, which is really a play on words as it is constantly being closed because of high levels of unknown chemicals/toxins in the "water". Running alongside the lake is Grove Avenue, a street well known to many people for being ghetto and drug-ridden. Many homes in the vicinity are run down, and it is said some even have dirt floors. Kids residing in the Silver Lake area are famous for the degradation of Wilmington's schools. All businesses around Silver Lake have struggled and failed to remain open, the Thai Express Restaurant, toy store, and nail salon to name a few. Some would say this is the armpit of Wilmington. Once someone heard you say you are going swimming at Silver Lake, get ready to see a look of complete horror on their face. Even if it's 100 degrees out and you need a little refreshment, stepping on a Hepatitis-infected needle protruding from the sand is not worth it.

A suck ass poor town in Massachusetts. The schools are shit, the teachers aren't certified, and are mostly whores. There are about 3 dunkin donuts on every corner. Half the town is ghetto, if you go near the Lowell border there is a lot of car accidents, gangs, shootings. Also near Walmart is a ghetto. hobos and niggers live on the train tracks, Houses are torn apart, the streets aren't paved, most people are drug addicts, no cops there, and no stores. there is only 2 fires stations in tewksbury which is y there is a fire almost everyday that they cant put out. The cops suck. In north tewksbury it is just a bunch of rich ass white wiggers that live in mansions or condos. In south tewksbury tewksbury kids and wilmington kids have gang wars, and most people down their smoke weed. The sports in tewksbury are horrible. The fields are a piece of shit. If you go on livingston street you will most likely be mugged by a nigger or hobo.
