Westchester Map – Neighborhoods

Westchester Avenue, Bakersfield, California

The Westchester neighborhood is just west of Downtown Bakersfield, although some people consider it to be part of Downtown. The Kern River, F Street, the BNSF Railroad Yard, and State Route 99 run through Westchester. This is primarily a residential area. It’s known for its enormous shady trees and old residences from the 1900s to the 1960s. The Kern County Museum (featuring the Beale Memorial Clock Tower) and Sam Lynn Ballpark are two major attractions.
