We found the whole place interesting and well worth the price of admission. The young man who gave us a tour of the vehicles building was very nice and very knowledgable. Full review by Barbara D

I’m turning 19 this coming up March and around this August coming I’m planning on taking a lil personal trip to California to visit a friend. I don’t know much about California don’t know much about airports and I’m just wondering would it be a great or smart idea to go by myself (don’t really have anybody to bring with me) but I’ll be 19 couldn’t I get my own hotel, plane ticket and everything I need for this trip together by myself. And is it safe

To answer your question about Bakersfield, "Is it safe," I would say that the Northwest and Southwest sides of the city are safe, and I would recommend staying in a hotel in these areas. …
To answer your question about Bakersfield, "Is it safe," I would say that the Northwest and Southwest sides of the city are safe, and I would recommend staying in a hotel in these areas. The Kern County Museum is fun during their special events in December and May, but there is a lot to do here. We have a Kern River Pathway that cuts through our town, and you can rent a bike at Finish Line next to the path. Walking along this area is exciting too. I see roadrunners, rabbits, and coyotes from time to time. Also, there are great restaurants along the Kern River, so stop and have a bite to eat. If you don't like nature, the Tejon Outlets are about 30 minutes south, and Los Angeles is only 1.5 hours away where you can find beaches, Disneyland, Knotts Berry Farm, and much more.
