Long Beach is a city in California on the edge of the Pacific Ocean close to Los Angeles. It is within the LA metro area and is a charter city known for its beach, the port and leisure and tourism. Once known for oil, Long Beach has evolved into a thriving city in its own right with a diverse economy and character.
Long Beach began with oil, grew with the Navy and is now a mix of technology, manufacturing and tourism. The cultural mix is very diverse too, with many languages being spoken and cultures being displayed. This makes Long Beach a very interesting place to live and work.
With a high population density, most corporate rentals in Long Beach will be apartments. Either in converted buildings or purpose built. There are condos and townhomes but these are few and far between. We can always find one if you need one though!
