What is the difference between the Port of Long Beach and the Port of Los Angeles?
The two ports are located side-by-side in San Pedro Bay, and operated separately one by the City of Long Beach and the other by the City of Los Angeles. The two ports compete for business, but have cooperated on joint rail and other infrastructure projects. Together they are referred to as the San Pedro Bay Ports. Although they operate independently of one another, if you combine the number of cargo containers shipped through Long Beach and Los Angeles, the two ports would rank as the world’s fifth busiest complex after facilities in Hong Kong and Singapore.
