Suburb in Southern California, adjacent to Long Beach. Was developed after World War II and rapidly grew with cheap homes made even cheaper to families under the GI Bill. A larger development than Levittown, Lakewood was also the first planned city to have a shopping mall at its center. Gained notoriety with the Spur Posse scandal in the early 1990s.
