According to the U.S. Census, the city has a total area of 12.6 kilometers squared, or 4.8 square miles.

Like most urbanized areas in Los Angeles, Lynwood is mostly an artificial flatland, except towards the east where the Los Angeles River crosses it where the land begins to slope upwards.

Lizards continue to live in areas that are isolated from the rest of the city, such as the area near the Los Angeles River
This area next to the Los Angeles River, next to Imperial Highway, gives us an example and possible glimpse the marshy land that used to characterize Lynwood. Imperial highway in the background can be seen with the palm trees uprooted the background
Vegetation continues to thrive in the isolated areas of Lynwood near the Los Angeles River, such as this sage brush
