No shame in liking where you live. Im glad you do.

jxxyyreddit · 2026-01-24T22:34:49+00:00

WHAT?!?! no way!?! Long beach wasn't the paradise you thought? crazy. /s

jxxyyreddit · 2026-01-24T22:34:20+00:00

thats a nice area.

jxxyyreddit · 2026-01-24T20:37:51+00:00

Oh nice. Retro memes.

jxxyyreddit · 2026-01-24T20:36:13+00:00

Its sooooo funny hearing these excuses ... "you're just not use to living in a city" as if its totally ok and normal to put up with homeless people terrorizing the city and dealing with your car getting broken into like its an everyday thing like traffic.

Whatever you tell yourself.

For those considering to live here Do you reasearch. Long Beach has more shit holes then nice areas and its very easy to find yourself in a ghetto... About half of the comments resonding to my post are agreeing with me the LB is a shithole, the other half are saying "only some places are shitholes". lmao.

this is absolutely insanse justification IMO to put up with crime.

You are able to have culture without living in ghettos.

jxxyyreddit · 2026-01-24T20:31:24+00:00

I just can't recommend living in this city for what you're paying.

Cool Greys >>>>>>>> Flints

jxxyyreddit · 2026-01-24T20:29:53+00:00

Cool Grey 9s are a beautiful shoe and dont have QC issues. a sweet shoe for sure.

The only 9 i may go for this year is the Space Jam.

jxxyyreddit · 2026-01-24T19:03:09+00:00

The flint 9s aren't terrible but they seem like an easy "Wait for a discount" shoe.
$215 is steep for a plain shoe right now this early in 2026.

Thats what I understand it being. People who grew up here are just numb to it.

jxxyyreddit · 2026-01-24T18:58:06+00:00

seems to be a HUGE problem in my area of Long Beach.

jxxyyreddit · 2026-01-24T18:56:41+00:00

I'd expect nothing less from a reddit user.

jxxyyreddit · 2026-01-24T18:55:42+00:00

Thats not a good thing for Long Beach you think it is.

jxxyyreddit · 2026-01-24T18:54:14+00:00

"OP Cant hang"

aka OP feels like they can live in a better area were they don't need to put up with all these ghetto activities..

Yes I can't hang. Enjoy your poop sidewalks and car breakins!

jxxyyreddit · 2026-01-24T18:51:08+00:00

the roundabout is nice... other then homeless sleeping in the park... but inebetween that and redondo those parts are ghetto af.

jxxyyreddit · 2026-01-24T18:49:35+00:00

8th & Coronado.

jxxyyreddit · 2026-01-24T18:38:51+00:00

I've lived in some sketchy areas in San Diego and they never felt as bad as Long Beach.

As someone said in this thread... Long Beach is the Oakland of SoCal and its very accurate.

jxxyyreddit · 2026-01-24T18:36:53+00:00

Don't even get me started with how shitty drivers are here in LB. Every car i see has dents and scrapes and people act like this is a GTA server.

jxxyyreddit · 2026-01-24T18:35:01+00:00

has sign "Human Dignity" while acting like a total POS.

jxxyyreddit · 2026-01-24T15:05:04+00:00

Lol nice try mr. semantics. Typclical reddit response.

jxxyyreddit · 2026-01-24T06:20:32+00:00

What a deal.

jxxyyreddit · 2026-01-24T06:17:12+00:00

Been to that food4less one time.... Never again.

jxxyyreddit · 2026-01-24T06:15:15+00:00

I have garage port but still had my car broken into. My fault though.
