About the City:

The City of San Joaquin is the smallest community in Fresno County, located about thirty miles to the west of the urban center of Fresno/Clovis. It is also surrounded by some of the richest and most fertile agricultural land in the Central Valley. We are situated within easy travel distance between two of America's most beautiful cities - Los Angeles and San Francisco the beautiful city of San Francisco located just west of the City of San Joaquin and Los Angeles is located to the south, both of which are easily accessible via Interstate 5 California's major transportation artery which stretches from the most southern tip of California to the northern most point and is considered a vital piece of infrastructure, critical to commerce for California which is the 5th largest economy in the world.

San Joaquin is beginning to expand its core landscape, with vast opportunities presently available that could make this small rural community an icon for its residents and its commercial community. Plans call for the expansion of Highway 99 to connect to Interstate 5 by passing through San Joaquin's major thoroughfare -- Manning Avenue that goes from the community of Orange Cove to the east of the City of San Joaquin -- that is 18 miles east of Interstate 5. This major undertaking will foster economic development for this City, and plans call for identifying land for future industrial parks along the new corridor that will meet the standards for a competing in a global economy.

This small community is growing, moving and planning for a bright future, because San Joaquin and its leadership, along with its professional staff have the vision that will make this community a progressive one. The vision includes accessibility and an aggressive approach to growth for both commercial and residential elements of our community.

With its affordable housing, its small friendly downtown, a modern strip center, and available distribution warehouses (available for rent or purchase) San Joaquin is ready to do business with companies contemplating relocation or expansion. Internet and wireless communication systems are actively being installed, thus our community's telecommunications networks are being improved.

San Joaquin is a hidden jewel, its an oasis between the west coast ranges to the west and the urban center of the City of Fresno to the east. The future belongs to the residents, its elected officials and its professional staff, as well as new and existing commercial establishments -- and yes, the landscape is changing with an eye to the future, making San Joaquin a great place to live and raise a family.
