Location
Get Directions
The historical harbor community of San Pedro lies 25 miles south of Downtown Los Angeles, just west of Long Beach. The northwest section is just shy of the waterfront area of the city, but residents of Northwest San Pedro enjoy panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean and Los Angeles Harbor, along with a buzzing downtown area year-round.
In the Northwest San Pedro area, you find homey neighborhoods such as Vista Del Ormo, which draws residents to Averill Park. The gentle waterfall at the park adds solace to this little corner of San Pedro. With fewer restaurants and tourist attractions in the northwest enclave, people enjoy the quiet community bond they share. Interstate 110 and the Seaside Freeway make it easy to head further inland or explore the coast.
