Flag

South Gate, in Los Angeles County, adopted a different flag than what is shown on FOTW. Adoption date is unknown, but appears to be at least as early as 2016.

Flag is white, with a dark blue border, with the attached seal centered. "South Gate" in blue is across the top, and "California" is across the bottom.

This page from the city's website has a description and large image of the seal: https://www.cityofsouthgate.org/Government/Departments/City-Manager/City-Logo-and-Seal

The City seal consists of a circular disk in the center, a cluster of azalea flowers at the lower left, and a shield at the lower right, as is described as follows:

At the center of the disk there is a gate opened by Lady Liberty standing in the center of the opened gates. The left side of the gate contains the word, “SOUTH” and the right side of the gate contains the word, “GATE”. Lady Liberty is surrounded by the rays of the sun of Opportunity, having the word, “OPPORTUNITY” across the top of this center design. The upper half of the circular disk is framed by the words, “CITY OF SOUTH GATE, CALIFORNIA”. The lower half of the circular disk is framed by the words, “INCORPORATED – JAN. 20, 1923”.

At the lower left of the disk appears a cluster of three (3) azalea flowers with leaves.

At the lower right of the disk appears a shield that contains five white stars appearing in a horizontal row. The lower portion of the badge consists of six (6) vertical stripes. The shield contains the words “All-America City” appearing between the cap and the stripes of the shield.
