    "Access to public transportation is good but A line needs better cleaning service and more security presence. Lots of sketchy opportunistic predators on certain stretches. Local transit is well maintained but schedules don't coordinate well with other lines. "

    "Its pretty densely populated in this area, which means traffic very much depends on the day. Most the time it’s not too bad. I avoid the 710 at all costs and take 7th street always. "

    "It’s nice to live here. What sucks the most is the parking!! There is NEVER PARKING! People are selfish and the city of Long Beach does not care about the parking situation. That’s a huge issue in this city. Besides that it’s a good place to live in. "
