Things to do in Bakersfield
Bakersfield is the seat of Kern County, which has long been California’s leading oil-producing county and ranks among the nation’s top agricultural counties. Carrots, almonds, pistachios, citrus and table grapes grow across the southern San Joaquin Valley, and some of the country’s largest produce companies operate here. Distribution centers along Interstate 5 and Highway 99 add logistics to the mix. The city is also the home of the Bakersfield Sound, the twangy country music made famous by Buck Owens and Merle Haggard, and of a Basque dining tradition that dates back to sheepherding days.
