A conveniently located southwest Bakersfield suburb
With a 30-mile bike trail and residential streets lined by pine and palm trees, Quailwood is a quiet neighborhood 10 minutes from downtown Bakersfield. “A lot of people who are escaping the steep prices along the L.A. Basin choose West Bakersfield, mainly due to the general safety of the area and the reputable school districts,” says Jose Torres, a local Realtor with RE/MAX Golden Empire.
Backyard pools and recent renovations
Most houses in Quailwood feature fenced-in back lots and in-ground swimming pools, sitting on quarter-acre lots. Along Saddleback Drive, however, yards stretch 1 acre to the Gates Canal.

Parks and pollution patterns
While Bakersfield is known for being challenged by air pollution, on days where the air-quality levels are on an upswing, there are many options for outdoor recreation. “A lot of the pollution comes from the Bay Area funneling into Bakersfield, but after living here for 30 years, it’s gotten much better,” says Bart Tipton, a Broker at Prestige Properties. Quailwood Park has a playground, shaded picnic tables and green space for playing catch or kicking the soccer ball. The 30-mile Kern River Bikeway Trail crosses through the northern part of the neighborhood, offering plenty of trail space for jogging, bicycling and pushing strollers. The Kern River Parkway Bike Trail is accessible just north of Quailwood from Truxtun Avenue. This 30-mile paved path spans from Route 43 in the southwest to Oil City, 5 miles northeast of downtown.

Easy travel and retail access, coupled with great schools and housing options, help to make Quailwood a desirable suburban community.
