Bakersfield, Texas

Bakersfield is an unincorporated community in Pecos County, Texas, United States.

Its most visible feature is an Exxon station on Farm to Market Road 11 serving motorists traveling on Interstate 10.

The community is located almost halfway between El Paso and San Antonio, nearly 275 miles from each.

The period of rapid growth was short-lived, however, as oil production and prices declined during the 1930s.
