    "Friendly and accepting, we have BL ock events and celebrations. We also occasionally have Front Yard Fridays - we hang out in our front yard just to be outside and be seen. You’d be amazed how that changes the vibe of a neighborhood to feel safe and friendly. "

    "Long Beach is huge but broken down into neighborhoods. We have an active parks and recs department and the city holds MANY city wide events like BeachStreets, music festivals, parades for most major holidays, and our high schools are all very tied to the community with sports and events! "

    "Been in South of Conant neighborhood for 16 1/2 years. The homes here are constantly being remodeled and upgraded. But the best part is how friendly most neighbors are, and being a dog owner here for 15 years has been amazing as the owners of dogs are very responsible. Mistakes happen, but each owner I know is very diligent to accommodate others. 3 very nice parks and a golf course are all within walking distance."
