Oildale Real Estate and North Bakersfield Homes
Oildale is located just a few miles north of downtown Bakersfield across the Kern River, the area is sometimes referred to as North Bakersfield or North of the River. This is a rapidly expanding area with commercial and manufacturing businesses steadily moving in. The Kern River is Oildale's southern border, and the northern border fades into the foothills. To the east, Manor Street and South Granite Rd are the boundaries, and Highway 99 defines the western border.
