Hey folks, I grew up here but left for a while. With a population of 10,358, Galion is a small town. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Am I wrong here? There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods.

I've lived in Lakewood for about 3 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it was the best decision I ever made. When I first moved here from Minneapolis, I was surprised by weather. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Friendly community, easy to meet people
- Good healthcare facilities
- The community vibe scene is better than expected
The downsides:
- Not a lot of cultural diversity
- Far from beaches/mountains
Overall I'd rate it 9/10 for retirees. Good luck with whatever you decide..
