History

A post office called Lowell has been in operation since 1883.[5] The city was named after Lowell, Maine.[6]

Geography

According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 1.19 square miles (3.08 km²), of which, 0.87 square miles (2.25 km²) is land and 0.32 square miles (0.83 km²) is water. The town of Lowell is surrounded by three reservoirs, respectively Dexter, Lookout Point, and Fall Creek. This makes the town a popular recreation area for people from Eugene and Springfield.[7]

Climate

The climate of Lowell differs slightly from that of Eugene, which is at lower elevation. Lowell receives 8 inches (20 cm) more of rain and 2 inches (51 mm) more of snow per year than Eugene. In central Lane County, that two inches is significant considering the lack of snow. The higher areas of the town receive more snow and rain as well. Wedged among three reservoirs, it experiences thick winter fog.[8][9]
