Are the Massachusetts towns Chelmsford Westford Acton Littleton Ayer Groton Dunstable Tyngsboro Bedford Billerica Tewksbury and Andover parts of Merrimack Valley area of Massachusetts?
I lived in Tyngsboro (through which the Merrimack River flows) for a couple of years, and some of those towns (in particular Groton, Bedford and Ayer) seem a bit far out unless you're using a fairly generous definition of "Valley". They're probably in the Merrimack River watershed (Bedford, for example, is on the Concord river, which flows into the Merrimack).It's also suspicious that one of the most prominent cities that's clearly in the Merrimack Valley ... Lowell, which is actually on the river itself ... is missing.
