What is the history of Bakersfield?

The Central Valley history is a story of adventure from the mountains to the Mojave. Native American settlements were established thousands of years ago in the Central Valley region, including the Yowlumne, a Yokuts tribe. They hunted elk, deer, antelope, bear, and game birds, and they fished. The first Europeans explored the area after the Mexican War of Independence, and Mexican settlers came in. Gold was discovered in 1848, after which people poured into the valley. Oil was later discovered and the region underwent major population growth and an economic boom. Bakersfield was named after Thomas Baker, a lawyer who came to the area in 1863, during the gold rush. He set up on the Kern River. The spot became a stop for travelers known as Baker’s Field. It soon became the county’s most prominent town, with about 600 residents, and it grew to over 2,626 by 1890. In 1898, during the Spanish-American War, a railroad stop was built, and the city was reincorporated.

How do I get around town?

You’re in the San Joaquin Valley, so — have a car, a bike, and comfy walking shoes. As in all California towns that are not San Francisco or mountain villages, Bakersfield is eminently walkable and bikeable. The city doesn’t have a great walking and bicycling infrastructure, but the terrain is level and so it is conducive to getting around in those ways. Golden Empire Transit provides citywide bus transportation. However, buses only run till 10 pm on weekdays and till 7 pm on weekends. Uber is an option for a ride on demand or for scheduling up to a month in advance for UberX, Uber Comfort, or non-emergency medical transportation. The bottom line is you need a car to make the most of your life in Bakersfield.

What is the Bakersfield commute like?

Bakersfield is in the heart of the central region around which all the major CA cities are located. The layout of Bakersfield is more grid-like and tidy, vs. a chaotic urban sprawl, which is commendable for a town with two riverways imposing irregular metropolitan mapping strictures. Commuting from Bakersfield happens on its few primary thoroughfares. I5 is the major north-to-southwest route to San Francisco and LA, respectively. Northbound I40 is the main route to Fresno, Sacramento, and beyond, and southbound through the Mojave and ultimately southeast to Flagstaff, AZ. Bakersfield is only about 100 miles from LA via I5. Meadows Field Airport offers American, Delta, and United Airlines flights from Kern County. Plus, there are two local Bakersfield regional commuter airports.

What is there to do around Bakersfield?

You can do anything you wish outdoors almost anytime of the year in the Central Valley. The Sacramento Valley is to the north, and from Modesto to Bakersfield, the San Joaquin Valley consumes the lower half of the Central Valley region. It spreads south all the way to the upper boundary of the Inland Empire. That’s a vast area of southern central California to do whatever you want anytime you want to do it. Walk along or kayak on the Kern River or San Joaquin River. Take a trip to the beach at San Luis Obispo. Cruise down to LA, the fun center of the universe. Or, just bask in the beauty of the serene San Joaquin Valley in your own backyard. Enjoy your place in the sun. Stretch your legs visiting the Carrizo Plain National Monument in the Temblor range. Or, hike in the adjacent Tehachapi Mountains. Visit the historic Tejon Ranch there. For high adventure, drive up the Sierra Nevadas to the overwhelming Giant Forest in Sequoia National Park. Stand under the General Sherman Tree. Now that’s a landmark. For action around town, don’t miss the Kern County Basque Festival through the Memorial Day Holiday weekend, the annual Greek Festival, the March Meet drag races, the Kern County Fair, or the Bakersfield Rock & Country Music & Art Festival. Try the Crystal Palace, an all-in-one music venue, bar, restaurant, and museum, and mesmerized by the dreamy Bakersfield Symphony Orchestra. Cheer on the Bakersfield Condors, the Majestics expansion team, the Renegades, and the Roadrunners (NCAA BWC). They all have their campuses in Bakersfield and generate endless excitement for sports fans of all persuasions here.
