Not sure if this has been asked before, but Born and raised here. With a population of 65,291, Lynwood is a smaller city. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Any help is appreciated.

I've lived in Old Town for about 6 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
I genuinely enjoy living here. When I first moved here from New York, I was surprised by dating scene. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Great outdoor activities nearby
- Friendly community, easy to meet people
- The outdoor recreation scene is better than expected
The downsides:
- Limited high-paying job options
- Property taxes are high
Overall I'd rate it 7/10 for young professionals. No regrets on my end..

Came here for cost of living and stayed because it's improved dramatically in recent years. The nightlife is honestly challenging and I don't see that changing anytime soon.
