Landscaping in Oildale, CA
North of the Kern River, Oildale yards get the same crew that works across Bakersfield: lawns, cleanups and sprinkler repairs.
Landscaping North of the Kern River
Oildale sits just north of Bakersfield across the Kern River, between the Kern River Oil Field and Highway 99. With a 2020 census population of 35,520 it is a big community, but it is unincorporated, which means it is not part of the City of Bakersfield even though it shares the metro area.
The name tells the story. Oildale grew up around an oil strike in 1899 on the north bank of the river, and the community was subdivided in 1909 under earlier names, Waits and North Side. A community with that much history has older, established neighborhoods, and older neighborhoods mean older yards: mature plantings, irrigation systems that have been running for decades and lots that have been kept up, or not, for a long time.
Oildale has long kept its own identity, and we treat it that way. When we take on a yard there, we start with the lawn and the sprinklers in front of us instead of assuming it will look like a newer Bakersfield subdivision.

Regular mowing, edging and trimming on a schedule that fits the neighborhood route.
Sprinkler Repair
Older systems are where we find the most worn heads and risers, so repair calls are common.

Local Considerations for Landscaping in Oildale
Outside Bakersfield city limits
Because Oildale is unincorporated, outdoor watering rules and the water provider can differ from city addresses. Confirm the rules for your street before changing a timer schedule.
Older neighborhoods, older irrigation
A community platted in 1909 has yards of every age. Expect a mix of newer systems and ones that have been patched many times, which makes a proper diagnosis worth more than another quick patch.
