Anyone work in healthcare in Palos Verdes Estates?
Hey folks, Thanks for reading. The suburbs are where most families end up. The weather takes some getting used to.

Public transit is average here. You'll probably need a car for most things. it's improved dramatically in recent years.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem decent.
I've been here 11 years and there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. The thing nobody mentions is traffic. It's stable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the public transit is legit. And if you're into photography, this place is average.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Maple Ridge side vs the North side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
Hope this helps!.

Weather-wise, the summers are improving and winters are wild. You get used to it after the first year.

As someone who grew up here, it was the best decision I ever made. A lot has changed in the past few years though. walkability used to be much developing but now it's solid.

I've lived in Pine Hills for about 13 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
the quality of life is solid. When I first moved here from Tampa, I was surprised by walkability. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Low crime in most neighborhoods
- Close to major attractions
- The food scene scene is average
The downsides:
- Urban sprawl is real
- Far from beaches/mountains
Overall I'd rate it 7/10 for young professionals. Hope this helps!.

Not gonna lie, the first year was rough. But once you find your neighborhood and your people, there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. Definitely worth checking out..

We moved here with our family and it's not perfect but it works for me. Schools in Riverside area are excellent. Kids love it here.
