This Spanish 3 BD 1BA home offers lots of charm & charater. Mock fireplace in living room with hardwood floors throughout the home, updated windows, large back yard and close to city transportation. Home is in need of some repairs, so ask me about the FHA 203K loan. Neighborhood Description Information from Wikipedia.org West Long Beach (or "the Westside") is a working-class neighborhood in Long Beach, California. Its boundaries are the Los Angeles River to the east, Interstate 405 to the north, Anaheim Street to the south, and Los Angeles and Carson to the west. The largest industry in the area is the combined Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles. There is also a large Shell oil refinery in nearby Wilmington and the massive Intermodal Container Transfer Facility (ICTF) on the neighborhood's western edge. The neighborhood is a mix of older residential housing, apartments and townhouses, and industrial buildings. The primary thoroughfare is Santa Fe Avenue, which runs north to south through the center of the neighborhood. The neighborhood has three official parks, including Silverado Park, which was the site of the infamous 1993 shooting by a bodyguard working for Long Beach rapper Snoop Doggy Dogg. The neighborhood was historically a working-class neighborhood due to its proximity to the Port of Long Beach and the large Shell Oil refinery in nearby Wilmington. A large U.S. navy housing complex once stood in the neighborhood, on Santa Fe Avenue near Pacific Coast Highway (Cabrillo High School now stands on the site). Like many neighborhoods with largely working-class populations, de-industrialization in the 1970s took its toll, and the neighborhood was largely poor by the early 1980s. While conditions have improved in the early 2000s, the neighborhood is still one of the poorest in Long Beach. There has been and continues to be heavy gang activity and a high rate of violent crime in the neighborhood, and large portions of the neighborhood are under gang injunctions directed at the West Side Longos gang and Rollin 80's West Coast Crip Gang, as well as home to other local gangs such as Sons of Samoa Samoan gang, Westside Islanders Guamanian/Filipino gang, and Long Beach Satanas Filipino gang, and the West Side Longo.
