Long Beach - Bixby Knolls Apartments at 4540 Orange Ave, Long Beach
I am relocating from Philadelphia, and want to live in a SAFE and economical area. Is Bixby Knolls Apartments at 4540 Orange Ave, Long Beach safe? If not, any suggestions for 2 bedroom apartments for under $1500 in and around Long Beach. Thanks!

long beach
I don't know the Bixby Knolls area that well. But if you're considering anywhere in LB, Naples, the Peninsula, and Belmont Shore are great. (Though it will be tough to find a 2 bedroom place at that budget). Just go to Gazette Newspapers -- Long Beach, CA and check out the classifieds. If you're looking for a more urban pace, downtown has lots of new development to consider. |

Yes - a fairly good area - some expensive homes and nice apartments and not too far from the beach - fairly expensive. Bixby Knolls is quite nice but is surrounded on 3 sides by areas that have crime problems...there are always more crime problems in and around apartment complexes than in the single family home neighborhoods.

I live in Belmont Heights and it's great!!!! Lot's of places to walk to (coffee shops, cafes, quaint shopping). I'm 4 blocks to the water and pier, 2nd Street. People are friendly, they always say "hi, how are you", etc., they bicycle alot, jog and you meet a lot of people walking their dogs. Take a look at Belmont Heights

Bixby Knolls has always been fairly quiet and residential. You should be fairly safe in that area.
