Bixby Knolls

Bixby Knolls is well-known for its low crime rate, high-performing schools, and high-end housing. This neighborhood is great for those who are willing to pay a larger price tag for opulence outside the city. The neighborhood is also near two freeways and the Long Beach airport, so this is a great area for commuters.

Naples

We love our own little “Venice of America.” Naples is Long Beach’s little Italy, complete with picturesque canals. The Marine Park is nearby offering a wonderful place to stroll, have a picnic, or take the kids to play.

Hellman Street Craftsman Historic Village 

Historic, charming craftsman bungalows make the Hellman Street area famous. This is a low-crime area with many good schools, making it a great choice for families. The best part? The North Alamitos Beach is well-within reach.
