The Seasons' contemporary and manufactured homes
Contemporary, single-family homes built from the 1990s to the 2020s have a variety of exterior styles, using two-tone color schemes, paneling, siding or brick and stone. Others have Mediterranean touches like clay tile roofing and stucco finishes. Most homes have driveways and attached garages; some have solar-paneled roofs and private pools. Prices range from $280,000 to $530,000. "The homes here are more modern, newer builds than in the surrounding areas," says Jose Torres, a Realtor at Re/Max Golden Empire with over five years of experience in Bakersfield.Fountain Springs Estates has manufactured homes dating to the 1970s and '80s. They range from $200,000 to $283,000. Lot ownership is part of the purchase; this is not always true for manufactured home communities. The homeowners association's monthly fee is $85, and it covers water and the maintenance of streets and common areas.

GET buses, state Route 99, Amtrak and flights
Golden Empire Transit (GET) has bus routes with stops on streets like Harris Road and Panama Lane. State Route 99 — the Golden State Highway — is close by, to the east. "The Seasons is a big commuter area, as Bakersfield is kind of the hub between Fresno and LA," Torres says. "Route 99 can take residents to either city in about 2 hours." Amtrak service is available from the Bakersfield Station on Truxtun Avenue downtown.From the Seasons, it's about 13 miles to Meadows Field Airport, which has passenger service on American Airlines and United. Bakersfield Municipal Airport is about 6 miles away and is used for general aviation purposes. Major airports, like Hollywood Burbank Airport and LAX, are within a 100-mile drive.

Events at Kern County Fairgrounds
From The Seasons, it's about 5 miles northeast to the Kern County Fairgrounds, which, in addition to the county fair, hosts events year-round, including concerts, classic car shows and livestock exhibitions. Bakersfield Christmas Town is also held at the fairgrounds. Christmas Town runs for over a month, with a holiday hayride, a sledding hill, interactive light shows and an ice-skating rink.Poor air quality related to oil drilling
Over 95% of the state's oil drilling occurs in Kern County, resulting in air quality issues. When pollutant levels are high, those with sensitivity are encouraged to reduce outdoor exercise, wear face masks and use air purifiers indoors.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
