The Bixby Knolls neighborhood is situated four miles north of Downtown Long Beach. Bixby Knolls is primarily residential in character, but is bisected by two major commercial and retail corridors: Atlantic Avenue and Long Beach Boulevard. The surrounding residential areas are predominantly upscale single-family neighborhoods. Historically known as “uptown,” Bixby Knolls includes the Los Cerritos and California Heights residential neighborhoods, which are among the most historically significant neighborhoods in Southern California. California Heights and Los Cerritos (also known as the Virginia Country Club area) are served by the neighborhood retail and commercial uses found along Atlantic Avenue and Long Beach.
