Thanks to its location near the Los Angeles/Orange County
line, the Southwest Long Beach area provides residents with
easy access to all of Southern California. To the south lies
Seal Beach, Surfside and world-famous Huntington Beach. North
is downtown Long Beach with world-class attractions such as
the Queen Mary, the annual Long Beach Grand Prix, Shoreline
Village and the newly opened Aquarium of the Pacific. The
convergence of the 605, 22 and 405 freeways provides residents
with easy access to inland areas.
Downtown Long Beach has undergone revitalization over the
past decade. Pine Avenue is a cosmopolitan commercial district
featuring fine restaurants, night clubs and specialty
boutiques that bring an eclectic mix of bohemian nightlife as
well as fine dining. The new Long Beach Mall offers a variety
of department and specialty stores. The Blue Line provides
inexpensive transportation to Los Angeles and Hollywood.
When it was founded in the late 19th century, Long Beach was
a resort town. Today, Long Beach is California's fifth largest
city. It offers a unique combination of strategic location,
excellent climate, shoreline beauty, and Southern California
lifestyle, wrapped in one package.
From the emphasis on the "three T's" (Trade, Tourism and
Technology), to the city's bountiful array of business and
residential neighborhoods, it's no wonder Long Beach is
quickly becoming one of the leading regions for business,
tourism and community in the west.
