The population remained relatively stable, declining slightly from 9,713 in 2013 to 9,124 in 2022. This stability, combined with income growth, may indicate improving economic conditions for existing residents rather than an influx of new, higher-income residents.

The economic growth in Lynwood appears to outpace typical national trends, especially considering the economic challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020-2021. The strengthening of the Black majority alongside significant income growth could represent a case of economic empowerment within a predominantly Black community.

Based on observed trends, Lynwood is likely to maintain its status as a Black Majority community in the near future. The steady increase in the Black population percentage, coupled with the decline in the White population, suggests this demographic composition will persist.

Economically, if the recent trend continues, Lynwood could potentially transition into a more affluent suburban community. However, given the past volatility, it is crucial to monitor whether the recent economic gains are sustainable.

The community might evolve towards slightly higher diversity, particularly if the growth in multiracial identification and the Hispanic population continues. While unlikely to shift from Black Majority status soon, Lynwood could potentially move towards a Moderate Diversity classification within the Black Majority framework, especially if economic prosperity attracts a more diverse population.

Lynwood presents a case of a Black Majority community experiencing significant economic uplift. The coming years will be crucial in determining whether this represents a sustained trend of community empowerment or a temporary fluctuation in a longer economic cycle.
