Bakersfield

but it’s a cute town. from the 58 into bakersfield, you see miles of factories, warehouses, huge tanks of god knows what, oil pumps and what not. once the 58 hits the 99, though, it’s pretty residential. some parts sorta maintain that industrial look, but other parts seem pretty clean. the people are nice and it’s greener than all of it’s surroundings. which was why my husband and i headed there in the first place. we wanted to find green. we live in the desert and have been green deprived for quite some time… so we figured that we should be able to find some green if we headed north. and that we did, in bakersfield. we were happy. when we move closer to bakersfield, i’m sure i will get more familiar with the town.

First summer selling books door to door… ok place, would only go back to drive around my old neighborhood.

hey everyone!!!! :=)

just here to say hi!!! :=)

I live here and I love it I don’t care about all those people hatting on bakers they don’t know what there talking about. You should visit bakers stay and cruise around for a bit it’s worth it I promise. I lived here for 2 1/2 years and I go out every day with the homies and we have the best time.

hey im new to this site so all i want to say is hi

My wife is fourth-generation Bakersfield and I’m third-generation Bakersfield so we have pretty deep roots.

We’ve both been all over the world, and I work in Malibu and my wife works in Santa Monica.

But Bakersfield is home. Where else can you be surrounded by so much that is growing?

When we look at Bakersfield, we think of Steinbeck. Call it delusional, but hey, well, okay, it’s delusional. But Bakersfield is home.

not a fan of this place. won’t be hurt if i never went back

Wow. How can I start?

I have lived here for sixteen years. Came kicking and screaming. Was not happy. Moped for 13 years. Discovered the art community. Allowed the artist in me to be birthed.

Proves anyplace can be divine when we allow it to be.

Bakersfield isnt a bad place…its no LA or San Diego. but its…cute
