The people of Long Beach love their coastal city for its diverse and inclusive culture, fun nightlife, and gorgeous ocean views. Famous for being the birthplace of Snoop Dogg, the city draws visitors from all over the world to tour the iconic Queen Mary, explore the Aquarium of the Pacific, and attend the annual Toyota Grand Prix. Like much of Los Angeles County, housing costs in LBC continue to rise. Thanks to urban lot splits and duplex developments, SB 9 can help create more “missing middle” options for renters and aspiring homeowners across California.
