Lawndale isn't a place I visit very often. It's got some crime, and while it's not too bad, there's more crime than I'd like, and I tend to avoid it. I think if you're looking to raise your kids and want to provide a great environment for them, this is not the place to visit.

Lawndale is a neighborhood with a lot of potential, but it currently is lacking in a few things most families would be looking for. It has seen a lot of growth in recent years, but it still isn't the safest neighborhood and there isn't a whole lot to do here. Overall, if you don't mind waiting for it to meet its potential, I think Lawndale would be a great neighborhood for an affordable starter home.
