About What's a good time to drive the 405 to Irvine from Long Beach
What's a good time to drive the 405 to Irvine from Long Beach?
I just moved to Long Beach, but I work in Irvine, off the 73. I left this morning at 7:20, and it took me 85 minutes to get here. I have some flexibility with my start time at work, so when should I be leaving home to get here without sitting in traffic for half an hour or more? 8:30? 9:00? Or am I just doomed like everyone else?

You're doomed! That fwy is killer in the AM. Leave 2 hours before or move closer. I'd find a chic around Irvine and bunk with her.
3 :
doomed, sadly.. anytime from 7-9 is pretty bad.. I think before 7 might be a little bit beterr, but for the most part..

About Where to live when working in Long Beach, CA
Where to live when working in Long Beach, CA?
Hi everyone, I am starting a new job in Long Beach and will be working near 1 World Trade Center. After living in New York for the last 5 years, I have my heart set on living near the beach. I am a single, 35-year old male and I would love to live a few blocks from the beach in one of those beach type communities that also has a decent amount of restaurants, shopping, nightlife, etc. And of course I want to live in the safest place possible. I am looking for a rental at this point and lets just assume that price of rent isn't an issue as I will worry about that later. At this point I am more interested in the best possible location to live. Some of my friends have suggested areas around Long Beach such as Seal Beach, Naples, Broadside Heights and areas outside of Long Beach such as Manhattan Beach, Huntington, Marina Del Rey and Newport Beach. I don't mind a commute as long as I am not stuck in horrendous amounts of traffic, but would that be possible if for example, I was working in Long Beach, but commuting from Manhattan Beach, Marina Del Rey or Orange County? I guess I wouldn't want to deal with a commute longer then 45 minutes. One of my friends said that I might be able to live in Orange County and take the metrolink into Long Beach, but she wasn't sure if the metrolink serves Long Beach or not. anyway, any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

i live in huntington. its a very nice area with a really nice pier/beach/stores downtown. long beach is about 15 minutes away. look it up on mapquest and see how far it is for u though. newport is a lot nicer, but more expensive and is farther from long beach. seal beach is in between huntington and long beach and theres nice places there too. personally, i think long beach is kind of slummy. not bad, just not a "nice area" like huntington or seal. not many people use trains around here, most use cars. although some do ride trains i guess but nowhere near the amount new york does haha. also if u go onto google maps, u can look at the "live view" of the actual street. look up the main street and pacific coast highway(pch) intersection in huntington. thats the downtown/beach area

Naples is a quiet upscale neighborhood in Long Beach. It's close to Belmont Shore, also part of Long Beach, that you might enjoy. Plenty of bars, restaurants and traffic. Seal Beach is a great town to live in. Main Street is lined with shops, bars and restaurants and it has a more chill feeling than neighboring Huntington Beach that has torn down everything that once made it a cute beach town. Seal Beach has kept its old-school beach town feeling. Sunset Beach is also a tiny sliver of a beach town you might like. It's in between Seal Beach and Huntington Beach. Metrolink doesn't go to Long Beach. Public transportation is slower than driving. Never heard of Broadside Heights. Manhattan Beach, Newport Beach and Marina del Rey would mean horrible amounts of traffic and a commute longer than 45 minutes. With any neighborhood close to the beach you will find parking to be nonexistent during the summer. Beach-side areas are older and they have on the street parking. Any neighborhood close to bars and restaurants will also have a lack of parking. You will have better luck looking on craigslist.com for apartments. In the old parts of town, which the coastal areas usually are, they have small, under 20 unit apartment buildings not complexes. Quite few places only put For Rent signs in front too.

No, the Metrolink does not serve Long Beach from Orange County. The MTA Blue line does connect Long Beach to downtown LA. I would suggest you live in one of the apartment communities in Long Beach. There are several that are just a few blocks from the beach.
4 :
If you don't want to drive in traffic, stay off the 405. It's called the 405 because you go 4 o' 5 miles per hour. Start looking in Huntington Beach, it's close. Seal Beach, Naples, Broadside Heights, Bixby Knolls are all good. Heck, you can even get a condo around Pine Avenue if you want a little nightlife. The metrolink doesn't go to Long Beach. It goes from OC to downtown LA. THen you take the Blue Line light rail (through Compton & Watts) to Long Beach. Your choice. I wouldn't. Check out lalife.com to check out pricing and safety of areas around there. One thing you'll find about the LA area, it's not like back east. You don't have many areas where people walk around, shop, etc. SoCal can best be described as endless suburbia, mixed in with shopping malls, commercial areas, and strip malls.

If you're renting there is a lot of stuff available really close to 1 World Trade Center and walking distance to the beach if not on the beach.

About Where should I live around long beach
Where should I live around long beach?
Hi, My husband has new job in Long beach and I work in San Dimas. We are planning to find a place in-between/around either of this places. We are ready to drive 30-40 miles. We would be renting apartment. Any suggestions?

Not a good idea near the coast just because we live in an active pacific region where earthquake activity is always a threat.
2 :
Are you trying to find somewhere in the middle? maybe fullerton, brea anaheim would be ideal then
3 :
if u are looking for a place with Indian food/amenities, you can consider Palms/Culver City if u want to move central to LA. Or else if u want to keep the commute shorter or bypass workday 405 traffic, then choose Hawthorne or Artesia/Lakewood. Nearer LA will be more expensive to rent. I wud expect more than San Dimas. *sorry i meant Hawthorne blvd in Torrance (above); not Hawthorne City which is a bit further north.
4 :
I would look into Brea, La Habra, La Mirada, Whittier, or Fullerton. Those are nice places in the middle.
5 :
Long Beach has some great neighborhoods to live in. the good areas are in the south and south/west portions of the city. these include(naples, park estates, belmont shore/heights, los altos. Other cities you should consider are neighborhing los alamitos and cypress( orange county). Both very safe
