Long Beach & Harbor

Anchored by Long Beach -- California's seventh-largest city and home to one of the world's busiest container ports -- this region includes the harbor-area communities at the southern tip of LA County. Long Beach has a revitalized downtown, growing arts scene, and diverse neighborhoods ranging from the upscale Belmont Shore waterfront to more affordable north-side communities. The A Line light rail connects Long Beach to downtown LA, and the Port of Long Beach is a major economic engine.
