Torrance DUI Lawyer

Torrance is located in the South Bay region to the south west of downtown Los Angeles.  It has one and a half miles of beach front on the Pacific Ocean but the beaches are less well known and subsequently a lot quieter than those of its neighbours Redondo Beach and Manhattan Beach.  Over the last few decades Torrance has become a popular destination for Asian migrants, particularly Japanese and this is reflected in the type of light industrial development that now predominates in the city.  Several big Japanese car manufacturers, like Toyota, have their US headquarters in Torrens as do a number of other Japanese companies.  This has led to a proliferation of Japanese restaurants and cultural offerings in Torrance.  Torrance also enjoys one of the lowest crime rates in LA County and is consistently listed amongst the safest cities in the County to live in.Torrance is located in the South Bay region to the south west of downtown Los Angeles.

The associated Nature Centre provides nature related activities and information for children and visitors.

If you’re into culture, the Torrance Cultural Arts Center has year round events including performances by the Torrance Performing Arts Consortium.
