Long Beach shares Pacific Time with the rest of California and the Los Angeles metropolitan region, observing federal DST. The city's coastal position at around 33.8 degrees north and 118.2 degrees west places it near the central California longitude, with solar noon during DST arriving close to 13:10 local time. The Mexican border at Tijuana around 200 kilometres south stays in the same Pacific Time zone year-round, as Baja California continues to observe DST in alignment with the US schedule.

Long Beach's working economy is dominated by port operations and the related logistics, distribution, and warehouse sector that extends inland through the Inland Empire. The harbour runs around the clock with three shifts. The Aerospace Corporation and several aviation engineering firms maintain operations at the Long Beach Airport, a legacy of the city's substantial post-war aviation industry.

Where is Long Beach?

Long Beach sits on the southern California coast at the western end of Orange County's coast, around 30 kilometres south of downtown Los Angeles. The city proper holds around 460,000 residents within the Los Angeles metropolitan area. The geography includes around 10 kilometres of Pacific waterfront, the artificial peninsula of Naples and Belmont Shore, and the deep-water port that forms the western half of the Port of Los Angeles-Long Beach complex (together the largest container port in the western hemisphere). The Queen Mary, permanently moored as a hotel, anchors the western waterfront.
