About this area:
Centrally located, Madera is bordered by Mariposa and Merced to the north, Fresno to the south, and Mono to the east. The county combines the high, rugged country of the Sierra Nevada Mountains and the farming and industrial land of the valley floor below. Most of its industrial and residential activity is positioned along Highway 99, the area’s primary transportation route, which provides a north-south corridor through the county.
