Kern River and Beautiful Bakersfield? Oh, yes. |
With a plentiful labor pool and room for expansion, it is not surprising why Inc. Magazine rated Bakersfield No. 9 on its Best Midsize Cities for Doing Business, 2008, the highest-rated California city on the list.
Bakersfield offers a surprising sophistication mingled with small town friendliness. Situated in the southern end of California's Central Valley, Bakersfield is strategically located in the heart of the one of the world's largest economies. It is a place where cutting edge technology development is blended with a rich history of agriculture and oil production.
Bakersfield has a rare quality to newcomers that feels like coming home, an oasis of friendly people, diverse cultures, and bright ideas in the vast stretch of the Golden State. New residents are attracted to Bakersfield's high quality of life. Our housing costs continue to be among the lowest in California, giving residents the ability to achieve the American dream of home ownership.
In Bakersfield, people take pride in their work. Bakersfield is committed to providing an environment where people can live and work in the same community. Bakersfield's state university, community college, satellite University of California campus and a half dozen private and trade colleges work closely with business leaders to train qualified employees.
Believe it, Bakersfield is beautiful as home to many parks, country clubs and just 10 miles from The Kern River, where you'll find world-class hiking, rafting and outdoor adventure. Plus, Bakersfield has over 275 days of sunshine a year to enjoy it.
