<p>I'm planning on going to CSU bakersfield. Is that a good college first and safe?
I heard it's a commuter school. is that a disadvantage?</p>
<p>it is not considered a top CSU but, Bakersfield is an OK school - you can get a solid education there but, few move from out of town to attend. So, it is a commuter school. It is plenty safe. It is near the bottom of the San Joaquin Valley which is heavy in oil and agriculture. The weather isn’t very nice and it is a long way from the ocean.</p>
