    "This is a perfect place for seniors who are 55+ as it's a quiet senior community and very peaceful. Participation in the HOA Board of Directors, or as a Committee Volunteer, should be on your card. "

    "My commute to Manhattan Beach is typically 25 minutes. Very hit and miss in terms of traffic oñ the 405 freeway. As little as 15 minutes. As much as 40 minutes. Taking side streets pretty much guarantees 30 minutes."

    "The schools are good, the streets in the neighborhood are safe, but a bit too narrow. Wilson park has many sport facilities and classes. There is a miniature steam train that gives free rides once a month. Halloween is a big ocassion, with many homes going all out to entertain and give out candy"

    "Great suburban community with old California charm. Well maintained homes, and city services are outstanding. Businesses are becoming more upscale, but without becoming unapproachable."
