Home insurance in Bakersfield, CA

Parts of Bakersfield are in mapped flood zones, and flooding isn't covered by a standard policy. Here's what to check.

Flood risk in Bakersfield

Flooding is not covered by a standard homeowners policy anywhere in the country — it is a separate policy. Whether you are required to carry it depends on the zone your address falls in.

FEMA's current mapping for the Bakersfield area shows Zone AE, Zone A alongside Zone X, which is the lower-risk designation.

Bakersfield takes part in the National Flood Insurance Program but is not in the Community Rating System, so there is no community discount on flood premiums here.
