About Bakersfield

Bakersfield is a quiet, tight-knit community nestled in the rolling hills of Franklin County. Life here centers along Route 108, which serves as Main Street and connects the village to Jeffersonville to the south and Enosburg Falls to the north. With just a few hundred residents spread along the valley road, the town offers plenty of open space, scenic views, and a relaxed, rural pace.

It is a welcoming choice for anyone looking for authentic small-town living.
