A typical old United States city, where everyone has so little to do that they bitch on Facebook about the town all the time. Full of people who were here when there was a buffalo farm on the corner and people who moved here because they heard it was whiter than white. Filled with hickville homes with plastic for insulation on the windows or McMansions that most can't afford. The big happening in the town is a trashy pumpkinfest once a year with a parade that literally is 2-3 hours of everyone and everything in the town on display, including 5 dance schools (with most of the teeny kids wearing so little), 2 matching bands, The town mayor, and lots of unheard of organizations. The town hosts 11 pizza take outs, 7 car parts stores , 3 or maybe it's 4 resale shops and little else. The people of South Lyon go into a tail spin for month when something like a Tim Hortons is being built. 95% of the population attends church although if you read what they say on social media you would never think it was a religion based community.
I live in South Lyon because it doesn't have any of "those " people and it still has old town America values.

An extremely white town filled with racists rednecks. Just the mere mention of Detroit fills the residents with fear. Main points of interest include a faggety little parade during Pumpkinfest, a shoddy little museum where the train used to run through. 2 high schools which are of vastly different qualities one having walls you can break through, the other recently built has plasma tvs and overall better facilities.

The one main actual amazing part of South Lyon is the South Lyon Hotel, originally a hotel it is now a kick-ass restaurant all but dedicated to its late manager Paul Baker.

All in all a place you cruise by on the Highway.
Between Mt.Brighton and Walmart (New Hudson) lays the terrible land know as South Lyon!

Ex. Confederate flags are flown in South Lyon despite few people in it knowing what century the Civil War took place.

Ex.Person 1: You want to go to South Lyon?
Person 2:As much as I'd like a nail through my skull.

South Lyon, also called the dirty SL, is the whitest city in michigan. The mere mention of any religion other than christianity will have you exiled into the wastelands (any city with an ethnically diverse population). Millennium Middle School is filled with fat trailer park kids who smoke weed they get from a “dealer” which is really their parents. Centennial Middle School is filled with pretentious, rich white boys who do anything with no repercussions because their families have so much social “power”. These kids say nigga on a daily basis and will do anything to get attention. South Lyon East is the better high school by a mile. South Lyon is older than a dementia-ridden grandma’s vagina. The shitass pumpkinfest is a facebook mom’s garden of eden. The sports teams suck shit, so terrible the athletes have to take tren. People fly confederate flags and trump flags all over the place. The teenage boys have “their own” political opinions they were fed by their parents but are really fags so deep in the closet they jerk off to pictures of their cousins. This town is full of KKK members who lynch black people in abandoned houses because unfortunately for them it’s illegal.
Person 1: Where you live? I’m from Southfield
Person 2: Damn nigga you lucky, I’m stuck in South Lyon
Person 1: Mane I’m sorry bout that, but I can’t talk to someone from the dirty SL

Was once Hicksville until all the little townspeople fucked and made babies, and now its a mix between wannabe novi preps and poser punks, along with a whole load of old people who complain all damn day because of all the changes due to their own kids, and then write letters to the newspaper- thinking people actually read that shit. Hey if you dont like it here, MOVE DUMBASS!!!!!!
South Lyon is da shizziest place to live.

A school where everyone is super judgmental. Mostly white school yet half the boys try to act like thugs because they smoke weed and wear designer brands. This school thrives on talking shit about other people and all people talk about is others. If you don’t wear designer or talk a lot of shit and do drugs you will not fit in to this school. South Lyon High School is one of two high schools in South Lyon and is known as the better school.
“hey there’s South Lyon high school!” “Oh yeah the whitest school in the state full of drugs and the most snobbish judgmental people!”

The obvious better high school in South Lyon, South Lyon east is better in every way compared too old. Unlike old, east is actually good at sports and isn't a school filled with dumbasses who have to rip a cart every 2 seconds. Old is filled people thinking they're the best but don't even know how to count the sides of a triangle.
"What school do you go too? -East kid
"I go to old hbu" -Old kid
"oh, dang so your a cunt, i go to South Lyon East" -East kid
"Lucky Old is filled with shit heads" -Olds

The “south Lyon B00D” Gang is a gang of white faggots who try to act like bitches in front of their bitchy friends. They are considered “ cool “ because they smoke weed pop pills and snort moly. Officially don’t fuck with them because they most likely have someone in the family who will kill you..
Elizabeth: Oh god those kids just snapped after they dapped each other
