    CITY OF BAKERSFIELD, CA

    At over 413, 000 residents within the City of Bakersfield and another 100,000 in the metro area, Bakersfield is the ninth largest city in California, ranked between Oakland and Anaheim. Uniquely placed geographically, the successful candidate will be no more than a couple of hours drive from all things California, whether that’s Disneyland, the Pacific Ocean, Sequoia’s Big Trees and Yosemite’s waterfalls, or the thrill of skiing at Mammoth Mountain. Right here at home, the 30-mile paved Kern River Parkway Trail winds through preserved riparian habitat where you might see rabbits, roadrunners, and other protected wildlife. Sunny year round, Bakersfield does get hot in the summer, but this region’s Mediterranean climate provides for an all-seasons lifestyle. Bakersfield is the nation’s top city for family activities.
