About this map

The community of Shafter and the settlement at Rio Bravo occupy a landscape rapidly transforming through infrastructure and industrial development in the late 1920s. A grid of named thoroughfares including Scaroni Avenue and Magnolia Avenue organizes the territory, reflecting the planned expansion of agricultural and utility corridors across the Central Valley. Central to the region's economy is the Southern Pacific railroad, which parallels the Mc Kittrick Bakersfield Highway and supports local facilities like the Oil Pumping Station.
