What to Know Before Renting a Luxury Apartment in Bakersfield, CA

Luxury rentals in Bakersfield typically feature upgraded finishes, modern appliances, and amenity-rich buildings — but "luxury" is not standardized, so tour units and read lease details carefully. Look for in-unit laundry, secure entry, fitness centers, and consistent maintenance response times. In Bakersfield, luxury inventory is smaller than mid-market stock but often offers more space per dollar than central urban cores nearby.

Luxury Rental Details by Bakersfield Neighborhood

Seven Oaks

Seven Oaks is one of the best places in Bakersfield to find spacious multi-bedroom rentals, making it a great fit for growing families. Most units are new 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom houses, townhomes, and apartments. Prices are typically above Bakersfield’s average rent price ($1,746/mo), with rents running higher for premium communities with luxury amenities. Besides the larger layouts, the neighborhood’s trail access and open green spaces make it a great pet-friendly option. Locals typically take Stockdale Highway and Buena Vista Road to travel throughout southwest Bakersfield, so it’s best suited for households with cars.

Stockdale Estates/Olde Stockdale

Established single-family homes and townhomes make up the rental offering in Stockdale Estates and Olde Stockdale. There are a few apartments, but most rentals are 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom homes. The area’s older and mid-era properties usually have rents that are above Bakersfield’s average rate of $1,746/mo, with renovated homes reaching moderate luxury price points. And since rentals run larger, many rentals are pet-friendly. Stockdale Highway and Gosford Road connect the neighborhood with central Bakersfield. Overall, Stockdale Estates and Olde Stockdale are ideal for families and commuters with pets who don’t need to rely on public transit for commuting.

Northwest Bakersfield/Rosedale

Newer apartments, townhomes, and single-family homes are available for rent throughout Northwest Bakersfield and Rosedale, with mostly 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, and 3-bedroom options. While renters can find premium options in new-construction developments, prices typically land within the city’s mid-range or above average. Rosedale Highway and the Westside Parkway/SR-58 corridor are the main east-west roads, connecting the neighborhood with the rest of Bakersfield. Because most rentals are larger, Northwest Bakersfield and Rosedale are great for families, professionals, and commuters looking for spacious pet-friendly rentals.

Downtown/Central Bakersfield

Bakersfield’s walkable urban hub offers older apartments, duplexes, and houses. Most rentals are older, making it one of the most affordable areas for studios, 1-bedroom, and 2-bedroom units in the city. Rents are usually below Bakersfield’s average price point of $1,746/mo, with a smaller share of luxury inventory. Rentals on walkable streets tend to be the most pet-friendly, especially those near downtown amenities. While buses are available, locals typically walk or drive along Chester Avenue and Truxtun Avenue. With its dining, cafes, and shops, Downtown and Central Bakersfield are best for budget-conscious professionals, young couples, or first-time renters seeking low housing costs.

Westchester

Westchester’s older apartments, duplexes, and single-family homes offer 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, and 3-bedroom rentals. Suburban-style properties with yards are usually the most pet-friendly.
