Its just a typical mid size city. In Texas we have Waco or Lubbock, in California you have Bakersfield. No big whoop.
I can see Bakersfield boom, and those who bought distressed houses the last couple years are going to cash in.
I think the big thing in California is that those who cant afford the coast go to the valley cities, and the contrast is really not fair, because if Bakersfield was in Iowa or Texas, it would be fine. In California its just an inland city, thats not in Southern California, the Bay area or near the coast.
