About 55 miles south of Los Angeles lies the city of Bakersfield, California, the 11th largest city in the state. It’s the fastest growing city with a population over 250,000 in the U.S., yet there is still room for real estate development in many areas of the city, particularly in the Rio Bravo section of the city.

Downtown Bakersfield has several attractions for those who live here. The Rabobank Arena hosts the city’s sports and music concerts. The intimate Fox Theater hosts top-name artists, comedy events, and movies. There is also a nightlife district with restaurants and clubs that is centered in Wall Street Alley and 19th Street.

Sure there’s plenty to do in Bakersfield, but what really draws people here? Why has its population grown almost 25% in the past decade? The price of real estate in this thriving city is far below the state average. Homes and condominiums in Bakersfield run about 41% less than the average home in California.

In addition to the very reasonable real estate prices, this city enjoys a very warm climate: Temperatures rarely fall below freezing even in the middle of winter and the average daily temperature in January is in the 50’s.
