Luxury homes and highly rated schools east of Long Beach
With a tucked-away feel east of Long Beach, Rossmoor is a small neighborhood just 5 miles north of Seal Beach Pier and the Pacific Ocean. Though not a gated community, the area is surrounded by a red brick partition to reduce highway noise and create a secluded atmosphere. “Rossmoor is where you go if you want to buy your forever home,” says Matt Tilley, ‘The British Bloke’ and a Hall of Fame Realtor at First Team Real Estate in Long Beach. He also hosts a YouTube channel about living in Los Angeles and Orange County. “People don’t move here with the intention of leaving in five to seven years like in other areas. When you come to Rossmoor, you’re here to stay.” The homes here sell in the millions and often have two-car garages and private pools. Nearby, The Shops at Rossmoor shopping center has several retail and dining spots. Rossmoor students attend schools within the Los Alamitos Unified School District, the No. 3 best school district in Orange County. Three of its elementary schools are within walking distance of most neighborhood homes.
Rossmoor is an unincorporated community that features amenities, dining, and shopping.
Many Rossmoor homes are often Spanish with stucco & clay tile roof with a garage and parking.

Modern homes with Spanish influences and private pools
A mix of mid-century modern and ranch-style homes line the streets of Rossmoor, with varying designs ranging from Spanish to Mediterranean, minimalist, modern and traditional brick residences. “The homes here are everything,” Tilley says. “The lots are much larger than the ones in most surrounding neighborhoods. If you’ve got five kids or want a five-bedroom home, you move to Rossmoor.” Well-kept backyards and gardens include private pools. Two-car garages and large driveways lead to clean streets and manicured sidewalks. Houses on the neighborhood's edge may back up to the brick partition surrounding it. Most of the homes in Rossmoor range between $1 million and $3 million. “It’s not often you see a listing here because Rossmoor is the endgame. People move here in their 40s and stick around,” Tilley says. “So, when someone does put a house on the market here it doesn’t last long.”
You'll find a mix of modern and contemporary ranch-style homes throughout Rossmoor.
There are also larger homes available in Rossmoor, such as this Spanish-style residence.

Highly rated Los Alamitos Unified School District
Rossmoor students may attend schools within the highly-rated Los Alamitos Unified School District. All schools within the district are supported by the Los Alamitos Education Foundation (LAEF), which offers after-school programs like a Lego Academy, drawing and painting, soccer, tennis or musical theater. “You’re not getting a home here unless you want your kids to go to the schools,” Tilley says. “Everyone knows everyone through their kids and the community that the schools create.” Francis Hopkins Elementary School also offers its Huskies Read program to help students develop a love of reading and share their favorite books. Oak Middle School’s class electives include advanced art, journalism, yearbook and choir for different skill levels. Los Alamitos High School has dozens of clubs and after-school activities such as a creative writing club, Girls Who Code, a Japanese club and Junior Class Council. All four schools are graded an A-plus on Niche.

The area that I'm currently living is an area where retiree's live. Many older people live in the area so It's really quiet around here. The best part of the area is that everything is around here, because stores like Target, Ralph's, Sprouts, and more.

The area I live in is already extremely nice. So it's constantly slowly improving but it's already so well organized it can't exponentially get better. It is just already the best.
