Coolidge Triangle has lower-priced homes and direct freeway access
Coolidge Triangle is a residential neighborhood in northwest Long Beach named for the triangular shape formed by Interstate 710 and state Route 91. Classic 1940s bungalows line the quiet streets, and the neighborhood park stays busy with youth sports and summer camps. You tend to hear some road noise, and some of the small homes can have older interiors, making this one of the lower-priced neighborhoods in Long Beach. However, demand remains high in this area, as you have easy access to Downtown Long Beach and Los Angeles, plus the support of an active neighborhood association.
Strong demand for 1940s bungalows and ranch-style homes
Coolidge Triangle is a single-family neighborhood where most homes date to the 1930s to 1940s. You’ll see mostly one-story properties, including classic Craftsman bungalows, Minimal traditional builds and ranch-style homes, many updated over the decades. Detached garages are occasionally converted into accessory dwelling unit additions. Prices generally range from the mid-$600,000s to the lower $800,000s. While these prices are below the median for Long Beach, this area is pretty much on par with the west side of the city. However, it’s still more expensive than nearby Compton. According to Airazulema Alfaro, a Realtor with Keller Williams SELA, demand here can be high: “We listed a house, and as soon as it went on the market, we had 13 offers, all of them over asking price.”
Most bungalows in Coolidge Triangle have front lawns.
Modern ranch-style homes can be found on the quiet streets.

Community is formed around an active neighborhood association
Carlos Valdez, former president of the Coolidge Triangle Neighborhood Association, has lived here for nearly 20 years. Though he says there's been some neglect over the past decade, he’s enthusiastic about the neighborhood's future: "Overall, the community is still very vibrant and very engaged; about 90% of residents are in the neighborhood association." The association meets monthly and plans an annual yard sale.
"The people who live here have been here for a long time; there's not a high turnover rate," Valdez says. He describes it as a quiet bedroom community where neighbors look out for each other. "You still see kids riding bikes, playing basketball at night. I see people walking their dogs at different hours of the day, even at night and in the early morning."
Long Beach schools offer career-focused pathways
This neighborhood is part of the Long Beach Unified School District. Coolidge Triangle is zoned for Colin Powell Academy for Success, a kindergarten through eighth-grade school less than a mile away across Long Beach Boulevard. Then it’s on to Jordan High School, known for its career pathways, such as Aspirations in Medical Sciences, where they can earn certifications in partnership with local hospitals.

Youth sports and free meals at Coolidge Park
One of the neighborhood's main draws is Coolidge Park, a 6-acre green space with a lighted softball field, basketball court and dog park. The community center hosts after-school activities and summer programs, keeping the area busy with sports games. During summer weekdays, kids can also get free meals at the center through the USDA Summer Food Service Program.

A few casual, locally owned eateries on Long Beach Boulevard
The main corridor is Long Beach Boulevard, a busy four-lane street with a handful of businesses. According to Valdez, this stretch is a key focus for revitalization. "Any leader will recognize the deeper needs of the community, ideally supporting and reopening small businesses on Long Beach Boulevard," he says. A few current businesses include:
Sal's Gumbo Shack: A Cajun and Creole eatery serving gumbo, po'boys and other Louisiana staples
Golden Burger: A no-frills local spot for burgers, fries and teriyaki plates
Don's Fish & Chicken: A takeout favorite for crispy fried seafood and chicken baskets
For everyday errands, the Gateway Towne Center in Compton is about 2 miles away with Aldi, Target and Home Depot.

Bordering the 710 to downtown Long Beach and LA
Freeway access is one of the neighborhood's biggest perks, according to Alfaro. "You can jump on the 710 and go straight to the beach," she says. Bordering the 710 and state Route 91 means you get some road noise, but commutes to nearby city centers are pretty direct:
Downtown Long Beach: 9 miles, about 15 minutes
Los Angeles: 20 miles, roughly 30 to 50 minutes depending on traffic
Anaheim: 19 miles, about 25 minutes
Long Beach Transit bus stops along Long Beach Boulevard are walkable from many homes, with a roughly 35-minute ride to downtown.

The 710 freeway has several entrances right around the neighborhood.
