A quiet neighborhood in north Long Beach
Named for American activist and suffragist Jane Addams, the Addams neighborhood in north Long Beach is known for its well-kept older homes and laid-back atmosphere. It gives commuters easy access to the Interstate and relatively affordable homes. Properties in Addams generally cost $100,000 below the Long Beach median price of $820,000. Buyers are within driving distance of desirable city amenities but live away from the busiest parts of town. “It's in a really good area,” says Robert Colangeli, a Realtor with IET Real Estate who is familiar with Addams. “The college is across the street, and the beach is a short drive away. It’s very convenient for everything.”

Midcentury homes at a lower cost than other Long Beach neighborhoods
Addams is a compact neighborhood of organized city blocks. The homes sit close together on smaller lots, many of which are shaded by mature trees.
