Best Places To Live Near Los Angeles, CA

The city of Los Angeles is very spread out. However, there are still plenty of great places to live near Los Angeles that offer you a nice suburban vibe while still being close to the city center. Here are some of the best places to live near LA:

Glendale

Glendale is a city in Los Angeles County, California, United States. It is located about 13 miles north of Downtown Los Angeles in the San Fernando Valley region. The population was 200,903 during the 2000 census and rose to 214,812 as of the 2010 census.[2]

Glendale has long been known for its large Armenian community; it is nicknamed "Little Armenia." The city also has significant populations from various European countries (especially Greece), Japan and Russia; these last two groups make up more than one fifth of the population each.

Hermosa Beach

Hermosa Beach is a beachfront city in Los Angeles County, California, United States. The city is located on the Pacific Ocean in the South Bay region of Southern California and is one of the three Beach Cities.

The city's name translates to "beautiful sea" in Spanish.

Manhattan Beach

Manhattan Beach is a beachfront city in southwestern Los Angeles County, California, United States. The city is named for Manhattan in New York City, the borough from which the city obtained its name. As of the 2010 census, the city population was 19,535.

Manhattan Beach was first settled by Europeans in 1871, when it was known as "the Village of Manhattan Beach". It became incorporated into Los Angeles' South Bay region in 1906.[6] In 1927 it expanded further than most of its neighbors by annexing part of the unincorporated territory of Redondo Beach; that land has since been reintegrated with Redondo Beach and is now part of Hermosa Beach (with Manhattan Beach north to Highland Avenue).[7]

The area's first hotel was developed at Colorado Street and Cabrillo Blvd., but what would become known at Public School [8] No 1 on Catalina Ave opened as an elementary school in 1875. By 1919 it had been renamed Manor Park Elementary School.

Palos Verdes Estates

Palos Verdes Estates is a city in Los Angeles County, California, United States, situated on the Palos Verdes Peninsula. The population was 13,142 at the 2010 census.

The city features sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean from high bluffs and rugged trails along steep cliffs. It has well-preserved Mid-Century Modern homes by Richard Neutra and Rudolf Schindler that have been restored to their original condition. There are also many historical landmarks in this beautiful city such as the Saint Anne's Church and Champagnat School founded by St. Marcellin Champagnat in 1887 (the first school he opened after becoming a priest).

Studio City

Studio City is a neighborhood in the San Fernando Valley region of Los Angeles, California. It is home to the ABC Television Center, Grant High School, and the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists building.

The Studio City neighborhood includes an affluent area at its core that is defined by having homes with high property values and low crime rates. The rest of the community is generally well-off with many middle class families enjoying this area for its proximity to both Hollywood and downtown Los Angeles as well as easy access to freeways that allow commuters easy access into greater Los Angeles areas like Pasadena or Glendale.

Conclusion

We hope you’ve enjoyed our list of the best places to live near Los Angeles, California! If you’re looking for a new place to start your next adventure, we think these cities are definitely worth considering. All five have their own unique charm and personality—from the laidback beach vibes in Hermosa Beach to the historic architecture around downtown Manhattan Beach. If you want to be close enough so that your commute is still manageable but far enough away so that it feels like home, then any one of these locations might just be perfect for you.

He also died on Catalina Island but idk of the resort town of Avalon with its yacht races and resort spas would be interested in building a monument to indigenous resistance anytime soon

Surveys Show Wide Health and Wellness Disparities in San Diego Schools

Stories about schools, strangely, often focus on adults. What new policy did the school board pass? What did the superintendent say today? How will the adults handle the budget?

But San Diego Unified School District, as well as other districts around the state, possess a trove of information on students’ perspectives of their educations. Those perspectives say a lot about the health of the region’s schools.

The California Healthy Kids Survey is administered to most schools in San Diego Unified each year and asks a range of questions about student experience, including: Do you get to do interesting activities in school? Do adults there care about you? Is your school clean and tidy? Do you feel safe?

Each school functions as its own distinct ecosystem. The student survey attempts to sample the health of that environment.

For comparison, take a coral reef. A healthy reef needs sunlight, a mix of lifeforms and to function in synchrony with ocean currents; the water needs to be a certain temperature and not too acidic.

Likewise, students need to feel safe and engaged at school. The physical environment needs to be warm and welcoming. If the balance is thrown off, students are not able to learn and grow.

The results of the 2017-18 healthy kids survey make one thing clear: There are wide disparities in health among the district’s 100-plus school ecosystems.

We created a searchable database listing the results to 11 key questions from the survey. The database contains the results for all schools in the district that administered the healthy kids survey.

For each question you can sort the results to draw your own conclusions about the health of the district’s schools. Here are some of our takeaways.

First, consider safety. At some elementary schools as many as 96 percent of students feel safe. At others, the percentage drops to 54 percent and lower. (To establish this range, I only considered schools where more than 50 percent of students responded to the survey. We listed the results for other schools, but be aware that as the participation rate in a survey goes down, the margin of error goes up.)

View the survey results for Crawford:

Crawford High School

Response Rate: 56%

Percent who feel safe in my school: 37%

Percent who said my school is not usually clean and tidy: 41%

Percent of students who have seen a weapon on campus in past 12 months: 14%

Percent who experienced chronic sadness/hopelessness in past 12 months: 34%

Percent who considered suicide in past 12 months: 19%

Percent who believe there is a teacher or adult at school who believes the student will be a success: 63%

Percent who feel close to other people at their school: 43%

Percent who say teachers at this school do not communicate with parents about what students are expected to learn in class: 23%

Percent who have used drugs or alcohol on campus in past 30 days: 12%

Percent who say the teachers at this school do not treat the students fairly: 22%

Percent who have been made fun of because of their looks or the way they talk at school in the past 12 months: 33%

Based on how many students reported feeling safe, we sorted schools into three categories. Those where many students felt safe are green. Those where the percentage of students who felt safe was close to average are yellow. Those where relatively few students felt safe are red.

Nearly three times as many schools where students felt less safe are located south of Interstate 8.

The safety results are not the only ones with wide-ranging disparities.

●    Schools with interesting activities: At Ocean Beach Elementary, 84 percent of students said they get to do interesting activities at school. At Cabrillo Elementary, just 24 percent said the same thing. Several other elementary schools also scored well below average.

●    Students motivated to learn: One question on the survey asks students whether their fellow classmates in school are motivated to learn. Between the schools with the highest and lowest percentage of students answering yes, there was a 60 percentage point spread. At Bethune K-8, 87 percent of students classified their peers as motivated to learn. At Webster Elementary, just 27 percent agreed.

●    Caring adults: At Ocean Beach Elementary, 99 percent of students said there is an adult at school who cares about them. At Cubberley Elementary, 45 percent said there is a caring adult.

●    Weapon at school: The percentage of students who have seen a weapon, like a gun or knife at school, also varied wildly. At Lafayette Elementary, 58 percent of students reported having seen a weapon at school during the last 12 months. At Wegeforth Elementary and several other schools, 0 percent of students reported having seen a weapon on campus.

District officials with San Diego Unified did not respond to a request for comment. District spokeswoman Maureen Magee previously said the district works with individual schools to help them understand their results. Magee was vague about exactly how the district uses the results and she raised doubts about their significance.

“The district works with schools to help them understand their individual survey results based on participation levels, which vary widely school by school and year by year; administration of the survey; and other factors,” Magee wrote in a statement.

High school and middle school students take a different survey than students in elementary school. (Unless otherwise noted, the results in our database come from fifth graders in elementary school, seventh graders in middle school and ninth graders in high school.)

In general, middle and high schoolers reported feeling less safe in school than elementary schoolers. Districtwide, 77 percent of elementary schoolers reported feeling safe in school. For middle school, 58 percent of students reported feeling safe while 51 percent of high schoolers reported feeling safe.

In general, the variation in results between middle and high schools were less wide-ranging than the elementary school results. This secondary school survey also asks several questions not found on the elementary school survey.

●    School clean and tidy. This question does not appear on the elementary school survey, but answers varied widely across high school and middle schools. At Hoover High, 62 percent of students reported their school is not usually clean and tidy. Several other schools had percentages in the 40s and 50s. At Kearny Innovation English and Design School, only 5 percent reported their school was not clean or tidy.

●    Feel close to others at school. At Longfellow K-8, 88 percent of students reported feeling close to other students in their school. At other schools, the percentage drifted below 50 percent.

●    Considered suicide. In one school as much as 36 percent of students had considered suicide. At others, the percentage dropped to just 2 percent.

This data can be used to improve students’ senses of safety and well-being, said David Osher, who studies school climate at the American Institutes for Research. Districts must take a hard look at the data, he previously told VOSD, and target improvement plans toward particular student groups who have a diminished sense of safety in school.

When this happens, he said, students’ academic outcomes can improve greatly.

“School teams need to be put in place to plan around the data,” Osher said. “And they need to be constantly asking, ‘What can we do to improve how students are experiencing conditions for learning?’” *Reposted modified article from the VOSD by Will Huntsberry of September 16, 2019

The San Francisco 49ers will participate in the March for Science San Francisco and bring the football team’s unique STEAM (Science, Technology, Education, Arts, and Mathematics) Education program to yet another fan base. The Denise DeBartolo York Education Center, located inside the 49ers Museum presented by Sony, serves as the home of the 49ers STEAM Education Program (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) – a learning platform that connects, inspires, and engages students in grades K-8. The comprehensive, free-of-charge 49ers STEAM Education Program is a four-part field trip experience that includes museum exploration, a Levi’s Stadium tour, a movement lab, and STEAM lesson. The program leverages football as a platform in order to connect, inspire, and engage each student.  The programming is aligned to 21st Century Learning Skills which incorporate critical thinking, problem-solving, communication, collaboration, and creativity for the students’ overall experience at Levi’s Stadium. By offering hands-on, project-based learning in a dynamic and innovative environment, the  49ers STEAM Education Program has enabled more than 150,000 students to use leading-edge, technological tools and techniques that challenges them to reach new heights over the last three years.

The San Francisco 49ers have their hands in a variety of science-based efforts.  The 49ers STEM Leadership Institute (SLI) created in partnership between the 49ers Foundation, Chevron, the Silicon Valley Education Foundation, and the Santa Clara Unified School District. SLI integrates a six-year curriculum that delivers more than 300 hours of supplemental STEM education to 60 students in grades 7-12 each year – free of charge. Launched in 2014 as part of the 49ers Foundation’s efforts, SLI is a collaborative education venture that each year welcomes to the program 60 new high-achieving 7th graders at the Chevron STEM Zone at Cabrillo Middle School in Santa Clara, Calif., to prepare them for eventual entry to top-tier colleges in STEM fields and STEM careers. In fall 2016, the program expanded to Santa Clara High School and, at full capacity in 2019, will serve 350 students from 7th through 12th grade.

In addition to the team’s commitment to education, Levi’s Stadium has also led a new generation of stadium design leveraging technology and sustainability to ensure a better experience for its guests and the community at-large. From the more than 1,000 state-of-the-art solar panels fixed atop the venue – which help makes Levi’s Stadium net-neutral to the grid for the 10 scheduled 49ers home games each season – to the first-ever rooftop farm at an NFL stadium – which will yield more than 7,500 pounds of vegetables in its first year – Levi’s Stadium is internationally recognized for its industry-leading sustainability efforts. Just this past October, the venue received LEED Gold Certification for Operations and Maintenance of an Existing Building on the same day the 49ers were recognized by the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy for its commitment to fighting climate change. As a Bay Area professional sports franchise firmly rooted in commitment to education and sustainability, the 49ers are excited to participate in the March for Science SF in support of access to learning in the sciences.

Richard Sherman gave back to his community ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday.

The San Francisco 49ers cornerback, 31, helped eliminate the outstanding cafeteria debt at Cabrillo Middle School in Santa Clara, California.

“Richard Sherman pulled me from my shift as a docent in the 49ers Museum to give me a personal check for $7,491.27 to cover Cabrillo Middle School’s cafeteria debt,” school principal Stan Garber said in a statement. “Richard’s gesture created such good will for the 49ers that they went on to sack Aaron Roger’s and the Green Bay Packers the next day on national tv by a score of 37-8.”

The athlete’s foundation, Blanket Coverage – The Richard Sherman Family Foundation, also sent a letter to the school’s Nutrition Services Department, according to local news outlet KPIX.

“We have found that eliminating student lunch debt is one way to help assist students and their families in relieving some of the stress that comes with attending school on a daily basis,” the letter read. “The last thing any child should have to worry about is being able to afford eating breakfast and lunch at school; we aim to do our part in eliminating that obstacle.”

  “It’s the most generous thing to happen for these kids, there’s plenty in need and he didn’t neglect them, it was the perfect way to give back and help them,” Garber told ABC News about the 60 students that will benefit from Sherman’s contribution. “It was the kindest most generous gesture.”

Following news of Sherman’s donation, the National Football League Players Association (NFLPA) named him as the Week 11 Community MVP. In addition to the over $7,000 to the Santa Clara school, earlier this month, Sherman wrote a check for over $20,000 to the Tacoma Public Schools in Tacoma, Washington to eliminate their student’s lunch debt, according to NBC Sports.

This isn’t the only act of kindness Sherman has generously performed this season.

The NFL star, who formerly played with the Seattle Seahawks, donated food to the Sumner High School food drive in Washington.

And earlier this month, Sherman also donated $5,000, via GoFundMe page, to help a Pop Warner team in his hometown of Compton, California travel to the National Youth Championship in Florida next month.

Port Of Long Beach Launches ‘Maritime Center Of Excellence’

Port of Long Beach and Long Beach City College leaders officially launched an innovative new program to provide opportunities to local students seeking the employment skills they need to join the goods movement workforce. The Port of Long Beach Maritime Center of Excellence at Long Beach City College will target a variety of programs for occupations in the global logistics and supply chain industries that require more education than a high school diploma, but less than a four-year college degree.

The Long Beach Board of Harbor Commissioners recently approved $60,000 in funding for the program’s first year as a pilot project. The Maritime Center joins the Academy of Global Logistics at Cabrillo High School as a keystone of the Port’s education outreach efforts.

“The Port of Long Beach believes in investing in the future workforce of the goods movement industry, right here in the city,” said Commission President Lou Anne Bynum. “The Maritime Center of Excellence will be designed to offer our local students the boost they need to start solid careers in the biggest industry in Long Beach — goods movement. We thank LBCC for working with us to make this initiative a reality.”

“One of the Long Beach Community College District’s central missions as a community college is to provide instruction, training and services to better educate our local workforce and advance our community’s economic growth and regional competitiveness,” said Long Beach Community College District Board President Sunny Zia. “This opportunity of partnership between the Port of Long Beach and the Long Beach Community College District will foster a growth in well-paying jobs for our students and community members seeking to work within the maritime and goods movement industry. It is a great example of the importance of collaboration between our District and industry partners to further develop and invest in our local economy.”

“Ports and other supply chain companies across the country and around the world are realizing the vital importance of developing a skilled maritime workforce to ensure the future of the goods movement industry,” said Port of Long Beach Executive Director Mario Cordero. “As always, the Port of Long Beach is in the education forefront.”

“Long Beach City College and the Port of Long Beach have a strong partnership of working together to positively impact our community,” said Long Beach Community College District Superintendent-President Dr. Reagan F. Romali. “At LBCC, we have been preparing our students to work in a complex global economy with ever-changing technology needs. This innovative partnership will truly change the lives of our students by providing them education and skills that will transition them from LBCC to the workforce.”

The training at the Maritime Center of Excellence will focus on in-demand occupations which may include jobs like: warehouse and distribution supervisor, transportation supervisor, logistics and supply chain specialist, order processor, shipping and receiving clerk, and scheduler and operations coordinator. As part of the one-year pilot program, LBCC will convene an advisory group with industry partners in 2018 to identify in-demand middle-skills jobs. The goal is to develop non-academic training to meet the needs of local employers, and prepare community members for careers in logistics and supply chain management.
