Wrigley Heights
Would you like to live in a quiet, tree lined, neighborhood with a small town
atmosphere, but still have the amenities of the big city...come home to
Wrigley Heights.
Wrigley was one of the first communities to be established
in Long Beach. The neighborhood was first developed in
1905. The town received its name from William Wrigley, the
owner and founder of the well-known Wrigley Spearmint Gum
Corporation in Chicago.
Located north of Downtown Long Beach and south of Bixby Knolls, California Heights and the Virginia Country Club areas, Wrigley
Heights is a terrific community with diverse home styles and prices.
Choose from Traditional, Tudor,
Craftsman, or Spanish distinctive style homes
that range in size from 1,300 square feet and up. Looking for space to spread
out? There are some lots that are over 10,000 square feet. Thinking of buying
a duplex? You'll find one here.
Wrigley is in the Long Beach Unified School
District.

parade begins at Pacific Coast Highway and proceeds to the
greenbelt at Hill Street. The large fir trees that line the
Daisy Avenue center medians are lit for the Christmas holiday
season. Many of the Daisy Avenue residents participate by
lavishly decorating their homes and have contributed to the area being dubbed
"Christmas Tree Lane". The parade is a wonderful event which
the locals look forward to every year and for which motorists line up for the
holiday drive up the avenue. It has been an annual tradition since 1953.
