What do Malibu and the unincorporated area of Lennox have in common? Nothing!

Malibu is a wealthy beach community whose median income for a family was $123,293. In Lennox, which neighbors Inglewood and Los Angeles, the median income for a family was $27,991.

So, considering the disparity, how does this make sense:

The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday will vote on proposals that would increase garbage collection and disposal fees for single family residences in the Lennox area from $206 to $279 per year; and in Malibu from $120 to $180 per year.
