A slice of suburbia in South Bakersfield
Stonegate is a well-manicured residential neighborhood 10 miles south of downtown Bakersfield. It’s one of a handful of south Bakersfield suburbs originally developed around school zones. “The communities benefit from a school district with strong academics and high ratings,” says local Realtor Shanti Brinsfield of Watson Realty, who’s been selling homes for over a decade. The neighborhood itself has a uniform feel, where homes here sit close together, shaded by tall palm trees. “It’s a very cookie-cutter neighborhood,” says Erik Van Denk, a Realtor with Central Valley Property Advisors who’s worked in the area for nearly two decades. “Unless you knew what street you were on, they all look the same.” Stonegate also has quick access to California State Route 99, which leads to downtown and other popular destinations. “You have parks, nearby schools that are great, and shopping and dining options not far away,” says Brinsfield. “All the necessities are close by.”
From cozy porches to expansive backyards, Stonegate homes offer various features.
Stonegate’s friendly vibe and well-kept surroundings make it a welcoming place to call home.

What’s happening on Hosking Road?
Hosking Road runs west and east through Stonegate, leading people to California State Route 99, which reaches downtown Bakersfield. Kern Transit offers several bus stops along the road. The Meadows Field Airport is 14 miles away, and Adventist Health Bakersfield is the nearest hospital, 10 miles north.
Air pollution in Bakersfield
Bakersfield’s air quality is polluted because of its geography; it’s positioned in a valley near the mountains, which traps pollution. Dust also tends to get trapped in the air since it's a heavy farming area. The San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District has programs like Charge Up!, which funds electric vehicle chargers and reduces car emissions. A wastewater plant 2 miles away can cause a strong odor for Stonegate residents.
Weekly trips to Sprouts Farmers Market
People can buy their groceries at Albertsons or Sprouts Farmers Market on Panama Lane, in Stonegate’s northeast corner. Next door is Nanak Sweets & Spices, an Indian grocery store. The Palms Shopping Center is 2 miles away, with tenants like Mandy’s Café, a popular brunch spot, and El Patron Bar and Grill. In the same plaza, the Soy and Spice Café is a cozy spot for Chinese food like pho and egg rolls.
