Centered just south of downtown Bakersfield, 93304 blends the historic charm of Oleander–Sunset’s early 1900s bungalows and tree-lined streets with the convenience of Valley Plaza Mall’s big-box shopping, cinemas, and eateries. Expect sunny, dry summers and mild winters; weekends often revolve around strolling Planz and Saunders parks, grabbing coffee along Ming Avenue, and sampling Bakersfield’s mix of taco stands and family-owned favorites that nod to the city’s Basque and country-music heritage. Everyday errands are easy with nearby Vallarta Supermarkets and FoodMaxx, a cluster of coffee shops and casual restaurants, and accessible gyms, plus quick connections to Highway 99 and local bus lines for an easy hop to downtown venues. According to Zillow’s recent market trends, the median asking rent in 93304 has hovered around $1,450 over the past few months, with most rentals listing between about $1,100 and $1,900. Yards and neighborhood parks make it welcoming for pets and families, and the overall pace is laid-back and community-focused.
