This established community of over 92,000 residents spans 7.4 square miles and offers apartments at rates typically below the California average, with one-bedroom units averaging around $1,571 per month. The city's convenient location provides easy access to major employment centers while maintaining its own distinct character.

The centerpiece of South Gate's recreational offerings is South Gate Park, a sprawling 97-acre space featuring a golf course, swimming facilities, and sports centers. Along with eight additional city parks, residents have access to more than 170 acres of green space. Transportation options include Metro Local and Metro Rapid bus service, plus the city-operated GATE transit system. The Tweedy Mile district serves as South Gate's main commercial corridor, while the city's educational infrastructure includes public schools and nearby access to higher education opportunities.
