Bakersfield is a thriving community nestled among three mountain ranges at the southern end of California’s vast and gorgeous San Joaquin Valley. The city’s growing population of 270,000 enjoys a quality of life unrivaled by most other California communities because of Bakersfield’s affordability. People can afford homes that would be out of their range in more urban or coastal cities, all while living just a couple of hours from the amenities of Los Angeles, mountains and the Pacific shore. Real estate options consist of mostly single-family, detached homes and a few condominiums in a variety of styles and price ranges. The area is known for its native beauty, with the Tehachapi’s, Temblor and Sierra Nevada Mountain ranges serving as background for rolling hills scattered with signature California chaparral and the beautiful Kern River flowing through the valley. The area’s climate is warm and dry, which is ideal for the citrus, almond, tomato, potato, pomegranate and grape crops that help to make Kern the fourth most productive agricultural county in the continental United States, an industry only surpassed locally by oil production, for which Kern is number one in the nation. Outdoors enthusiasts enjoy countless activities from whitewater rafting to golf. Shoppers can choose from several antique dealers, indoor mega-malls and charming boutiques. Restaurants serve authentic Mexican food, old west steak dinners, local country cooking and cuisine from the Basque region in the Pyranees Mountains. Bakersfield’s mixture of homespun hospitality, focus on family, and cultural diversity makes a recipe for community success. | More on Bakersfield |
