Filmed on Sunday, June 16 2024, I drive around Long Beach, IN to see what's going on.

Long Beach was founded in the 1920s as a resort town. It was named for the sand beaches of Lake Michigan.

Residents tend to be a mixture of permanent residents and individuals visiting Long Beach on weekends or for the summer, the latter group mostly individuals from nearby Chicago.

Long Beach purchases municipal water from adjoining Michigan City and has few sewers and sidewalks. The majority of homes have septic systems for waste water disposal.

Long Beach was the childhood home of Supreme Court Justice John Roberts and Siri founder Dag Kittlaus. Hunter Biden owned a home in Long Beach near Lake Michigan. Frank Lloyd Wright's son John Lloyd Wright lived here and established an architectural practice, designing many houses in the area.
