OK so My family moved here when I was a kid. Household incomes average around $61,216 in Florence-Graham. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. What do you all think? It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much.

I've lived in Lakewood for about 2 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it exceeded my expectations. When I first moved here from Phoenix, I was surprised by cultural scene. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Great outdoor activities nearby
- Strong job market in several industries
- The nightlife scene is pretty good
The downsides:
- Limited high-paying job options
- Dating scene is rough
Overall I'd rate it 7/10 for families. Would recommend to anyone considering it..
