Review of Lakewood, Washington


Crime
Star Rating - 6/26/2006
Have lived in a mobile home park here for 5 years. 3 or 4 times a week lowlifes come thru to see what they can steal. We have drug deals going down in several mobiles and the cops can't do anything about it as they don't see it happening. They just ask us for license plate numbers to keep track of the bad guys that way.
For 15 years the city of Lakewood was on the show COPS always catching somebody doing something wrong. A few months ago the local tv station did an on camera interview with a Lakewood City Council member stating that COPS was not welcome to film here anymore as it gave the city a bad name. While talking on camera, a cop car goes screaming back with lights and siren going.
Move somewhere else, you will be better off for it.
