Longtime lurker here, Been living here since 2007. It's a a smaller city city with about 52,546 people. With a population of 52,546, Paramount is a smaller city. Crime rate is something to consider -Paramount sits at 637.6 per 100K. Median household income is $70,912, which feels about average for the area. Rent is about $1,772/month for a decent place. The suburbs are where most families end up. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus.
Pros:

Cons:
- Hot summers
- Limited dining options
- Boring for young people
- Limited cultural events
