If you are looking for a central location to the city and surrounding areas this is the place for you. The city park across the street was great. Our 2 young boys love it and made play friends as there was always activity there. The little ladies selling mexican candies and corn from their cart was a plus. There was also a free city pool which was well managed and a splash pad. From the locations we went to Hollywood, laguna, redondo beach and Pasadena with ease.
