Anyone else noticing rent going up fast in Bellflower? Over the last year, I feel like prices went up at least 10-15%. I'm paying $1771 for a 2BR which feels okay for the area.
Are there any neighborhoods that are still affordable? Thinking about moving to a cheaper area.

I work in logistics and finding a job wasn't hard. Took about 1 months.

Don't sleep on Eastside. It's up and coming and still affordable.

Been here 20 years. The city has changed a lot but overall for the better.

Traffic is the worst part honestly. But if you live near work it's fine.

I'd add that the school system has been improving steadily. Otherwise spot on!

Downtown is overrated and overpriced. The suburbs offer way better value.

Great post! One thing I'd mention is the west side tends to be more affordable. Makes a big difference.

For families, I'd recommend looking at Riverside. Schools are rated well and it's quiet.

Check out the Eastside area. Way more affordable and still close to everything.
