A growing neighborhood in Southwest California
Downtown Delano is a small neighborhood in the heart of Delano, the second-largest city in Kern County. It’s 32 miles away from Bakersfield, which takes first place. Downtown Delano’s population has grown by 4% since 2020, and the area is being developed to accommodate. “They’re building fast food chains like Chipotle, which wouldn’t be happening unless more people were moving here,” says Anish Mohan, a multifamily unit developer with OM Development and Construction, who has worked in Delano for nearly a decade. “Also, more homes are being built, and they’re more affordable than areas like Bakersfield.” The neighborhood is mainly filled with renters who can access walkable streets and public transportation. While it has a busy urban feel, residents are connected and host many community events, such as Delano Harvest Holidays. “The community of Delano is great,” Mohan says. “It’s a very helpful community.”
