The large number of star clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud provides us with an excellent opportunity to understand well this neighboring galaxy. The large variety of integrated cluster colors present suggests a wide range in evolutionary stages, and several studies have established vague relationships between their location in the LMC and properties including color, total luminosity and metallicity.
