    City of Tulare, CA

    The City of Tulare is an exceptional community with a population of 63,515, situated in the Central San Joaquin Valley along Highway 99, just 47 miles south of Fresno and 64 miles north of Bakersfield. Our mid-state location benefits businesses needing same-day access to key California markets as well as residents seeking recreational opportunities in the beautiful Sierra Nevada Mountains to the east and the spectacular California coastline to the west. Founded in 1874 by the railroad, Tulare overcame numerous disasters in the 1880’s. Following three major fires and the departure of the railroad, the community’s saving element was bringing water and farming to the area. Situated in the heart of some of the most productive farmland in the world, Tulare is very attractive to food processors and distributors (such as Haagen-Dazs, Land O’Lakes, Saputo, and Kraft) because of our central location and abundant supply of locally grown products. Tulare County is the number one milk-processing county, and now the second largest agricultural producing county in the world, second only to neighboring Fresno County. With its strong agricultural vitality, Tulare seeks to diversify its industrial and retail base through our focus on economic development. The City not only welcomes new industries and businesses, but it has become a regional attraction. Tulare has a historical downtown, first class historical museum, and an expanding outlet center providing 2.6 million square feet of retail space. In addition, Tulare is home of the International Agri-Center, sponsor of the largest farm equipment show in the world – the World Ag Expo. Previously recognized as one of the 25 “Best Managed Small Cities” in the country, Tulare is well known for its volunteerism and community spirit. The City has an excellent rapport with its citizenry and is currently undergoing positive growth. Tulare also has an attractive housing market with exceptionally priced quality homes. Tulare is a city challenging itself to provide new opportunities for all who call it home. The community is growing yet it retains the caring atmosphere of a small town. The city honors and celebrates its culturally diverse heritage while providing democratic and cost effective services to all its citizens. The City Council works closely with the City Manager and with members of the public to ensure that the “voice of the citizen” is heard.
