The most highly prized thing in real estate right now is WALKABILITY. People go vacation in Europe or Asia and the thing they love the most is how walkable those communities are. Walkability means much more than exercise for the legs. It means having a community, knowing your neighbors, feeling safe, having joy and happiness perfuse our brains, creating an antidote to being cooped up in the house all day. It means not having to jump in your car every time you want leave the house. It means fresh air and fresh ideas. A walkable neighborhood is worth its weight in gold. Belmont Heights may be the most walkable neighborhood in all of Long Beach, after Naples and Belmont Shore. But the nice thing about Belmont Heights is that it’s in the Heights.
