Alameda: KER-99-AT RTE 223
Few places in California have a history as closely tied to automobile travel as the State Route 99–State Route 223 interchange south of Bakersfield. It stands in Kern County at the southern end of the San Joaquin Valley, where Route 223 connects agricultural areas around Arvin with the principal north–south Route 99 corridor. California’s Route 99 follows much of historic U.S. Route 99, once a key West Coast highway between the Mexican and Canadian borders. Route 99 remains one of the Central Valley’s major road corridors. Today, the interchange brings local movements together with longer-distance traffic in a working region whose economy is rooted in farming and food processing.

Alameda is best known in California for its position in Kern County’s southern San Joaquin Valley, an inland agricultural plain south of Bakersfield. This is not the Alameda on San Francisco Bay, but a small rural locality in a region shaped by irrigated farming and petroleum production. Kern County is among the United States’ leading oil-producing counties, while the valley floor supports extensive cultivation. Alameda’s setting shows how quickly Bakersfield’s urban edge gives way to working farmland and open valley country.

California occupies a long Pacific coastal belt in the United States. Its terrain ranges from the Sierra Nevada and the fertile Central Valley to deserts in the southeast and the rugged shores of the Pacific Ocean. The state includes both Mount Whitney, the highest point in the contiguous United States, and extensive protected lands such as Yosemite National Park. California’s cities have exerted worldwide influence through film, technology, agriculture, and music; Hollywood remains an enduring symbol of the American screen industry. Its scale means climates and local character can change dramatically from one county to the next. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of California.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
