Bellflower Overview

Situated in southeast Los Angeles County, Bellflower is an on-the-move city of 50,000, making it among the most densely populated cities in the nation. Drawing its name from the Bellflower Apple, a popular harvest in the area, this California hot spot is presently a hub of the medical industry as well as agriculture.

What is the history of Bellflower?

Established at the turn of the century in the 1900s, Bellflower was known largely for its apple crops and dairy farming. Industry continued to move towards the city as the years went on, with the 1950s and 60s seeing an increase in eateries and retail stores along the city's main drag. Today, known by locals as 'The Friendly City', Bellflower is a diverse and blue collar center of economic growth in the state.

How is the weather in Bellflower?

California is known for its sunny skies for good reason, and Bellflower is no exception. Winters are mild, and summer temps can hover in the 90s. Fall is typically highlighted by crisp, dry evenings and spring brings with it the rains most years.

How do I get around town?

Those residing in Bellflower apartments in the downtown area most likely rely upon Bellflower Bus for getting around, although a large number of residents do claim ownership of at least one personal automobile. Long Beach Transit and the MTA provide larger-reaching transportation options, with Los Angeles proper offering the most wide-spread air travel.

What is the Bellflower commute like?

State Route 91 moves east to west across the city, while the San Gabriel River Freeway handles most of the north to south travel. Los Angeles traffic is notorious for a reason, and those commuting to the city at large from Bellflower apartments will want to allow plenty of time to reach their destinations, especially during peak 9-to-5 rush hours.

What are the local media outlets?

The LA TImes is the most prevalent news source in the city, and major broadcasting networks such as NBC and CNN are found with ease thanks to a large allotment of city affiliates. Radio is eclectic, ranging from sporting news to modern rock, urban formats to gospel and jazz.

Why live in Bellflower, CA?

A city as scenic as its name might imply, Bellflower rentals are an excellent choice when it comes to finding a new home in California. Brimming with plenty of retail and nightlife options, and offering a lower economic range than much of the surrounding townships of LA County, this thriving blue collar community is an ideal blend of city amenities and know-your-neighbor ambiance.

What Bellflower landmarks should I see?

The Bradbury Building and the Coca-Cola Building are both local sites worth searching out, and Thompson Park is an excellent spot to go for a swim or enjoy a picnic with friends. The Dominguez Ranch Adobe dates back to the early 1800s, while Sunset Alley Studio is a must-see.

What is there to do around Bellflower?

Grab the kids and head to the wet and wild summer fun of Pirates Cove, located just a splash from most Bellflower apartments, or grab some dinner at the Loaded Cafe. The LA County Fire Museum is a history lover's dream, featuring plenty of vintage fire trucks and signage, while New Wave is a perfect spot for some late night cocktails and some smooth, groovy tunes. Search for rare vinyl at the Bellflower Music Center, or shoot some pool at Hard Times Billiards, both easily reached from a majority of apartments in Bellflower.

Any annual festivals or Bellflower events to know?

LA Beer Week happens every June, a hugely popular event for the over 21 crowd, and Donut Fest brings in plenty of baked good fanatics as well. Still, the crown jewel of local festivities goes to Bellflower Street Fest, a summer series offering Friday night concerts, plenty of local crafts and food galore.

Where are the nearby vacation spots?

Roll the dice and hit the road to Las Vegas, a worthy weekend adventure is there ever was one. Phoenix and much of Arizona is also easily reached for those living in Bellflower apartments, and Highway 101 runs along the California coast all the way north to lower Oregon, with plenty of fishing, boating and camping opportunities available for lovers of the great outdoors.

Where is the best place to move in Bellflower?

From economic one-bedroom units offering onsite amenities such as swimming pool and gym facilities, to spacious family rentals complete with pet-friendly policies and plenty of onsite parking, Bellflower apartments are as varied as the proud residents that call them home. So what are you waiting for? Start your search for the ideal Bellflower rental to meet your particular needs today, and start enjoying California without further delay!
