Watertown

Until today no one outside of the Boston area would have ever heard of the town of Watertown. Wedged in bewteen Cambridge, Boston and Newton Watertown is a quite and easy to overlook suburb of Boston. Not a large town and not overly distingusted Watertown is the working class enclave of the area. Watertown doesn;t have the panache of either its neighbors like Cambridge or Newton it is just a town for the working Joe. It seems it iis now infamous.
Streets lined with three decker houses normally get no notice but today they are now part of world news. This is a town of families. Noted more for Christmas displays and holiday celebrations than police action. Watertown is now a name and I am sure the residents are not happy about it. This is a place to raise your kids and buy your starter home not a hot bed of terrorist activity but that has all changed.
