Bakersfield is the ninth largest city in California, ranked between Oakland and Anaheim. Uniquely placed

geographically, the successful candidate will be no more than a couple of hours drive from all things California,

at Mammoth Mountain. Right here at home, the 30-mile paved Kern River Parkway Trail winds through preserved

riparian habitat where you might see rabbits, roadrunners, and other protected wildlife. Sunny year round,

Bakersfield does get hot in the summer, but this region’s Mediterranean climate provides for an

all-seasons lifestyle. Bakersfield is the nation’s top city for family activities. For more information
