    "We've lived in Haggin Oaks for a few years and we love it. We can walk to the Marketplace in 10 minutes for dinner, shopping, ice cream, or a movie. We have two very nice parks even closer than that, and our kids walk to the neighborhood elementary school (McAuliffe). The neighborhood is very friendly, and really comes together at Halloween and Christmas, when people come from other parts of town to enjoy the festive decorations. There's no other neighborhood in Bakersfield we would rather live in."

    "I am fortunate to live here. the neighbors are wonderful, the quiet of the neighborhood is lovely, having the school across the street means a wide street and lots of room. good walking with my dogs, a park within walking distance, shopping, good restaurants and movie theaters within a mile at the MarketPlace. Whats not to like. incredible ease of living."
