From a bustling community plaza to balmy landscaping

Haggin Oaks is separated from a bustling community plaza by a cinderblock wall covered in greenery. Haggin Oaks Boulevard breaks through the barrier, entering this secluded oasis. As the road continues south, the already sleek-looking mansions become monumental, growing to twice their size as the balmy landscape finds an added layer of complexity. Haggin Oaks is the kind of neighborhood where a stone fountain is a courtyard centerpiece, and lion statues stand guard at the end of driveways. "This is my favorite part of town," says Evelyn Martinez, Realtor at Agentcor Realty. "I love homes like this. They're classic older homes with character and beautiful landscaping."

Architecture with Mediterranean influence

Contemporary and expansive ranch-style homes have Mediterranean influences with tile roofs and turret rooms. With features like this on an impressive scale, homes in Haggin Oaks reference classical architecture from an ancient era of Europe. “Resort-style living is trending throughout the region, so a lot of these communities have gyms, pools, hiking trails and even an activity center,” says Gary Carruesco, a Realtor at Brimhall Realty. Home prices begin around $350,000 and reach up to $1 million. Contemporary homes cost between $380,000 and $740,000. Ranch-style houses often have the exterior of a French-influenced farmhouse with low-hanging roofs, bulky chimneys and pointed towers. Prices range from $460,000 to $1 million, part of the difference being that ranch-style homes can double in size and price depending on their proximity to Haggin Oaks Park or The Marketplace. Haggin Oaks Villas is a gated community of ranch-style homes. Prices range from $380,000 to $590,000. In gated communities like Parkside Townhomes, prices fall between $250,000 and $290,000, while condos cost around $260,000 to $280,000.

Italian street art and other local events

During the Via Arte festival in October, high school students and professional artists from the region gather to create lifelike chalk portraits of characters from fables, comic books and cartoons. Artists draw their murals onto The Marketplace parking lot and can win awards. "Up-and-coming artists draw their art on the pavement in the parking lot, and during the summer, there's music and dancing." The Haggin Oaks Farmers Market provides fresh produce on Sunday mornings at the Kaiser-Permanente medical offices. Concerts by the Fountain is a summer concert series on Thursday evenings in July and August, with local groups of varying genres performing shows at The Marketplace.

Haggin Oaks Park

The neighborhood surrounds Haggin Oaks Park, a 9-acre space with a playground and tennis courts by a small lake. Pin Oak Park is another area with basketball courts and walking paths. In Westwold Park, picnic tables border paved trails that lead to a sandy jungle gym.

Bakersfield's air quality

Kern County produces a significant portion of the country's oil and petroleum through drilling and is commonly known as the "energy capital of California." As a result, Bakersfield struggles with high air pollution. However, new initiatives are in place to improve the city's air quality. "I've been here for 30 years, and it's gotten much better. Mostly, it's pollution funneling down into the Bakersfield valley, but the rain clears it up quickly. I don't notice it much anymore," says Bart Tipton, a Broker at Prestige Properties with 13 years of experience in the area.
