    "Long Beach is a wonderful self-contained environment offering food and drink, cultural activities and, most uniquely, a beautiful pristine beach and recently reconstructed 2 1/2 mile long boardwalk. People walk dogs at night, kids ride bikes, crime is low and at times when walking in Long Beach, you feel like you’ve been transported back in time to a more tranquil, innocent America. "

    "Most dogs are friendly. Owners keep them on a leash and are responsible about picking up after them. The main issue is that some owners let their dogs stay in the yard all day and bark continuously. "

I’m someone who loves the smell of the ocean coming through my window and know that I have a beautiful scenic route to look, walk or be nearby at whether it’s sunset or sunrise. Most people are friendly and there’s a wide variety of restaurants to choose from. I love that this town has many bicyclists; whether laid back cruisers or competitive cyclists. No matter the weather it’s a beautiful place to live. "

    "I think the area of Long Beach is a very nice beach community. It’s a 50 minute commute from Long Beach to Penn Station/NYC. There are now so many residents that have dogs. Some dog owners are not responsible and leave dog waste in plastic bags on or in front of buildings and or other peoples property which is so disrespectful. Some dog owners are good and properly dispose their dogs waste. "
