I have a business phone Cingular Treo which I only get about one bar and only can make calls sometime in the upstairs bedroom, My Verizon Razor have 5 bars and I can make calls from the basement. I have used all the cell phone carriers in the LA area and travel the highways daily. I can clearly state the Verizon has the best service of any cellular company in Los Angeles. Sprint has good coverage as well since Sprint and Verizon are on the same network and share cell site. The only thing with Sprint is their customer service is not very good and forget about getting them to do something as simple as change rate plans without mayor issues. Verizon voice, data and customer service is the best.

The tower locations on this website are not accurate. I am a consultant for T-Mobile and worked on the installation of their site on 2nd St. and Nieto (on top of Steak O'Rama). This cell site is not listed on this website. I checked other locations in which I installed cell sites for Cingular and T-Mobile and they too are not listed.

Tmoblie works great here, inside and outside of my house. I had Verizon and could never get a signal.

Switched to Verizon from AT&T 2 years ago. AT&T had no reception at my house. Verizon is great, at my house and throughout this part of Long Beach.

Nextel has been great for me and connections are 5 stars. I travel all over my state and never have a problem connecting. Unless am in the dessert!

There's an old AT&T tower on the NE corner of this intersecrion, now a Cingular tower. I can see this tower from my home and I get near perfect reception inside and outside the house. Overall I'm happy with Cingular in the Long Beach area, but I wish I had a different phone. All my problems can be attributed to the phone.

Great reception. So good I don't even have a landline anymore.

its always good in the long beach area, the only problem is inside of the building. but not offen

Great reception always!

I live in Long Beach but travel hundreds of miles each week all over LA and Orange county for work. I am constantly on the phone in the car, and only rarely do I get dropped. When I first signed up with them 5 years ago I lived in Laguna Niguel, and the reception was poor because of all of the canyons, but 2 weeks later they put up new towers and it was perfect. As for customer service... well, that is another story, but most companies are a pain to deal with from what I hear. If reception is your main concern, switch to Sprint!
