Wilton Manors- Gayberhood. Older low density urban type neighborhood. Not a bad place to be at all, but if that bothers you, I wouldn't live there. On the City-Data top 101 lists, it currently ranks number 1 in gay population in the entire country. Ahead of West Hollywood, CA and San Francisco.
Oakland Park- Gritty, high crime, bland and tasteless. Worst city in Broward County.

Compelled summarized Wilton Manors quite accurately.

As for Oakland Park, some of the areas in the eastern part of the city -- generally between Dixie Highway on the west and U.S. 1 on the east -- actually are pretty nice (of course, you'll pay more for housing, too). But west of Dixie Highway, Oakland Park is run-of-the-mill at best, ugly and dangerous at worst. There are better options.

I did forget about that area, but I can't think of a city in Broward County as all around sketchy. Actually, Pembroke Park is worse, I take that back.
