Long Beach has the best parks in the Southland! The Trust for Public Lands released its annual ranking of the nation’s parks, and Long Beach was ranked 1st in Southern California and 18th out of 75 cities nationwide. Our parks are an important part of our City, as they provide spaces for recreational activities, after-school programs, community events, and enjoyment of nature. Thank you to our Parks, Recreation and Marine Department for their dedication and hard work in helping Long Beach to achieve this premier ranking.
