Former site of a women's prison, which fell down in a quake in the 40's (or so). {In the book, Sam Spade says "San Quentin".} Now for the net.singles content: Tehachapi is a lovely town (if you like places like Pearblossom*, Littlerock (CA), Quartz Hill, Rosamond, all of which are to be appreciated for their melodic names, and abundance of dust), which is probably best described as "The Gateway to Bakersfield from China Lake". There are many apple orchards here.
