Essential Moving Tips for Central California

Whether you’re relocating down the street or making a long-distance move to Central California, being prepared can make your move stress-free. Here are our top moving tips to help you settle in with ease:
  • Plan Around Traffic: Central California sees its share of traffic, especially in cities like Fresno, Bakersfield, and Modesto. If possible, schedule your move during off-peak hours to avoid congestion on highways like I-5 and CA-99.
  • Check Parking Rules for Moving Trucks: Many Central California cities, especially in denser areas like downtown Fresno or Bakersfield, have rules about where large vehicles can park. Always check local regulations ahead of time.
  • Consider the Weather: Central California has generally pleasant weather, but summers can be extremely hot—especially in the Central Valley. Plan your move early in the day to avoid peak heat.
  • Declutter Before You Move: The cost of living and home sizes vary across Central California. Before your move, take time to sort, donate, or sell items you no longer need to simplify the process.
  • Plan for Long-Distance Moves Early: If you’re moving to Central California from out of state, give yourself plenty of time to plan. Rural access or long-distance coordination can take extra time to arrange.

Moving to Central California? Here’s What to Know

Relocating to Central California means sunshine and diversity. But before you pack your bags, here’s what you should know about Central California.

The Cost of Living

Central California’s cost of living is generally 16% below the state average and around 6% above the national average, thanks to more affordable housing and moderate essentials.

  • In the Central Valley, the median home price was about $369,500 in June 2025, significantly lower than the statewide median.
  • Cities like Bakersfield ($360K median)and Fresno (~$397K) provide budget-friendly housing options, often well under California’s $840K average.
  • Average rent in the region ranges from $1,450–$1,600/month, far below coastal averages of $2,600–$2,800/month.

Traffic is a Daily Reality

Central California sees significantly less congestion than coastal metro areas, but rush hour still affects major corridors. Cities like Fresno, Bakersfield, Modesto, and Stockton experience noticeable slowdowns on SR99, I-5, and local arterials.

Outdoor Activities Are Everywhere

From river valleys to Sierra foothills and desert expanses, outdoor options are plentiful. Hike or camp in Kings Canyon or Sequoia National Park, float on nearby lakes, explore Modesto’s or Fresno’s parks, or enjoy local vineyards and farm-fresh produce.

Cultural Hotspot

Central California is rich in cultural events and local flavor without coastal crowds. Cities like Bakersfield offer Basque cuisine, country music legacy, and regional museums. Fresno hosts the Big Fresno Fair, ArtHop, and ethnic food festivals.
