The city of South Gate is a safe and friendly city with many resources provided to its residents. This neighborhood is safe and the police departments are always on duty. There are amazing, multiple parks that benefit all people with great resources and activities for all ages.The best parks that I have visited are at South Gate! Holllydale park even has a trail for horses! Which is something rare to see at low/middle-class city parks. South Gate has some great cafes, dine-in and fast food options.
South Gate is all I have ever known. I lived here my whole life and do not know life outside of this city. South Gate is not the best neighborhood but it does have a lot of culture. Mostly populated by Hispanics many people are able to relate to common struggles in the community. Where I live is right next to Huntington Park so their is a lot of crime that happens on this side of the city. Having a shopping center local makes hanging out with friends exciting! Being able to have a grocery store near is also very helpful.
I have grown to love South Gate as I have lived there basically my whole life. South Gate to me is home because it's where my family lives, where I grew up, and the place I'm most familiar with. I love the comfort that South Gate brings me because it's where I feel safe. South Gate has everything you need from a variety of grocery stores, South Gate park, Goals, a dog park, and so much more that make it feel like home to the community that lives there.
