City/town information
This is an island town with a stretch of beach, jogging, and bike paths. There are many small neighborhood "stations" (where the train used to stop) with retail and dining options.
Check out the Gold Coast for the large Victorian, Edwardian, and craftsman homes. Drive down Burbank Street with palm trees lining both sides of the street. (Photo op).

Walking is the Best Here!
You can get around the island in so many ways. It's small, so walking within a neighborhood is best. You can also bike, scooter or drive, of course.
