A sprawling city of 546,288 in the San Joaquin Valley, California’s breadbasket, Fresno is a big producer of almonds, grapes, pistachios, and just about every vegetable under the sun. At the same time, downtown Fresno reflects this growing, urban metropolis with a lively business and entertainment district, performing arts venues, art galleries, and restaurants centered around Courthouse Park.

Just a few blocks away, the minor league Fresno Grizzlies play their home games at Chukchansi Park. In fact, Fresno has nine sports stadiums and arenas, many tennis centers, and even an elite beach volleyball club. City parks have facilities for everything from playgrounds to skateparks and a wheelchair basketball court. Fresno State University, Cal State University Fresno, and numerous community colleges offer degree programs, and the Fresno Unified School District operates 188 public schools.

Fresno is the gateway to the Sierra National Forest and Yosemite National Park is just an hour away, putting weekends and vacations in nature close at hand.
