Life by the beach in El Segundo
El Segundo is a city with a small-town vibe and access to South Bay's beaches. Los Angeles International Airport is right next door, and the greater metropolitan area is nearby. Its meaning in Spanish is "the second." But this isn't a popularity contest — the name comes from its location with the second of Standard's oil refineries in the area. The refinery, now owned by Chevron, is a major employer in the area, providing over 1,000 jobs. Industrial sites make up a portion of the city, separate from the convenient downtown area and comfortable residential streets elsewhere in El Segundo.

El Segundo Beach and other parks
El Segundo Beach is a perfect spot for surfing, volleyball, and relaxing by the water. The nearby Strand offers a scenic route for biking and walking, connecting to neighboring beach towns like Mahattan Beach and Hermosa Beach. The multiuse location Recreation Park is known by locals as "Rec and Park and Library," according to Debbie Miller, recreation specialist at the Joslyn Recreation Center. She explains that there are multiple options for different age groups and types of activities: "The Josyln Center deals with the seniors; they have exercise activities, a senior club, and luncheons all the time." Miller says a spot called "The Club House" is geared toward youngsters, and another facility, "The Check Out," focuses on outdoor activities. "They have pickleball, basketball, tennis, and it's a great place for picnics," Miller says.
