About this map

The Kern River and an intricate network of irrigation channels like the Gates Canal and Stockdale Canal define the agricultural landscape of the southern San Joaquin Valley in the mid-1950s. This survey captures the southwest expansion of Bakersfield, where residential blocks begin to press against established agricultural sites such as the Stockdale Ranch and the Stockdale Country Club. Further south, rural communities like Pumpkin Center, Old River, and Panama are visible as small clusters of activity along the grid-like road system.
