Five things I love about Palos Verdes:
I am often asked by soon-to-be residents what I like best about living in Palos Verdes. My answer is not always as concise and to the point as I would like. I found myself thinking about the very legitimate question and here's my list:
1. The Coastal Location: I have a need to be close to the ocean. A long walk along a beach is one of my favorite indulgences, and I partake often. It's a quality of life decision for me. It's also called location.
2. The Outstanding School District: Hands down this is why I moved to Palos Verdes 21 years ago. It remains the main draw for many new residents.
3. The Country Setting in an Urban County: Los Angeles is one of the most densely populated counties in the country, but upon entering Palos Verdes you are immediately struck by the open space.
4. The Breathtaking Views: You do not have to own a view property to enjoy the spectacular vistas. A drive around the Palos Verdes Peninsula offers views of Catalina Island, a couple of lighthouses, sweeping coastline views, Los Angeles Harbor views, and dazzling city lights views.
5. The Low Profile Attitude: This is not Hollywood or even Beverly Hills. It's quiet here.
If 5 reasons are not enough to convince you Palos Verdes is a little piece of paradise maybe 1 photo from yesterday's walk will be your tipping point.

Norma - you had me at "coastal location!"
Margaret - I know exactly what you mean.
Norma,
What a gorgeous picture, we share your love for the coat. A
Norma, You already know I envy your proximity to the ocean. I'm sure there is more to Palos Verdes than the beautiful and majestic Pacific Ocean ... but for me, it's the ocean! All the reasons you list as close seconds to location. As cold as it is right now, I can feel my feet in the sand and water.
Norma, I would say reason number ONE says it all along with the picture! Great schools, and quiet setting are all icing on the cake!
Norma, indeed a beautiful spot in California
Great Localism post highlighting Palos Verdes, Norma, looks like a great place to live.
