Spice Tract blends classic mid-century design with everyday convenience in the heart of Bakersfield, offering wide streets, mature shade trees, and a neighborhood feel that makes quick strolls and porch conversations part of the routine. Its central location puts you minutes from Downtown and key employers across Kern County, while major corridors make commuting and weekend getaways refreshingly simple.
Families appreciate practical proximity to schools and services. The area is served by the Bakersfield City School District, known for robust elementary and middle school programs, while high school students are part of the Kern High School District, the state’s largest high school district with extensive career tech, arts, and athletics options. Local markets, cafés, and everyday amenities are nearby, and city-maintained parks provide open space for morning jogs, pickup games, and picnic afternoons.
Weekends are easy to fill: explore galleries and eateries in Oleander-Sunset, catch community events downtown, or hop on a route with Golden Empire Transit for car-light errands and outings. Housing here ranges from well-kept postwar ranch homes to thoughtfully updated residences, giving first-time buyers and long-timers alike solid options and value.
