    Little Iowa by the Sea. Hometown pride. Small, even provincial at times, but also a Mecca for the “weirdos” of the world... artists, writers, musicians, LGBTQ, movers and shakers. #LBCLove

    Best place to use hill exercise. Also, is the ramp to bike pad. If you are coming with car, there are plenty of metered parking. Bring quarters.

    The best housing value in Southern California. Make sure to check out Bluff Park, the Arts District, Belmont Shore, Retro Row (Broadway Street) and the Toyota Grand Prix.

    Long beach is near to so many things like Queen Mary or Aquarium of the Pacific. Awesome weather on summer.

    Avoid the non touristy areas of downtown. The area near Cesar Chavez Park has triple the homicide rate as the rest of the city.

    We're beach-side for the Long Beach Soccer Championship. After you work up a sweat, stop by the bus to refuel with a cold cup on us!

    Stop calling it "strong beach". "Bong leach" is still acceptable, however.
