1992 Map of Oil Center
USGS Topo · Published 1995About this map
The Kern River serves as the dividing line between the industrial oil patches of the southern Central Valley and the expanding urban core of Bakersfield. In this early 1990s landscape, the north bank is dominated by a dense network of petroleum infrastructure and small workers' settlements like Oil Center and Oil City. Historical footprints remain visible, such as Gordons Ferry and the Beardsley Weir, which point to the river's essential role in early transport and irrigation.
