Review of Bakersfield Califor, Iowa


Worst mistake of my life
Star Rating - 10/3/2008
Our home got broken into, the door was broken down and everything, so we called the police at about 2pm, no one showed up until about 11:30pm. I have had my car stereo stolen 3 times from different locations. My friends car was stolen from in front of her home in the west side of town which is supposed to be the "good" side. There are so many gangs here that I don't let my kids play in the front yard and we don't even live in the "bad" part of town. There are also too many drugs in this town, I moved here thinking I was moving away from those dangers for my children, little did I know that it would be worse here. I've been here 3yrs., I do not plan to make it 4.
