Bakersfield, the site of
the company headquarters of Aera Energy LLC and Aera Energy Services
Company, is located at
the southern end of California’s San Joaquin Valley, about 90 miles
north of Los Angeles and about 300 miles southeast of San Francisco.
Its central location offers residents easy access to many of the
activities for which California is known -- mountain sports, the
Pacific coast, and the LA scene are less than two hours away. The
high desert climate makes it easy to enjoy an outdoor lifestyle and
a 15-mile bike and running trail winds along the Kern River through
the heart of the community.
The Greater Bakersfield area is home to over 300,000
people. The city and county provide the services you expect in a
large metropolitan area, yet a small-town atmosphere prevails. The
cost of housing in Bakersfield is substantially less than other
California big cities, making it affordable and desirable for
singles and families.
Twelve elementary school districts and the Kern High School
District, which administers 13 comprehensive high schools, serve
metropolitan Bakersfield. Institutions of higher education include
Bakersfield College, one of the nation’s oldest continually
operating community colleges, and California State University,
Bakersfield, which offers 31 undergraduate and 14 graduate degree
programs.
The metropolitan area also boasts a number of outstanding cultural
resources including the Bakersfield Symphony Orchestra, the
Bakersfield Museum of Art, the Kern County Museum, and the
California Living Museum. The Centennial Garden Convention Center,
Buck Owens’ Crystal Palace, and the Fox Theater bring first-class
professional entertainment to the area.
