Kettleman Hills oil operations dominate the landscape in the mid-1950s, defining the industrial character of this portion of Kings and Fresno Counties. The town of Avenal sits at the base of the hills, serving as a central hub for the surrounding petroleum infrastructure, which includes an extensive network of pipelines, Oil Tanks, and an Oil Refinery. To the northwest, the Polvadero Country Club and family-held properties like Weeth Ranch and Starkey and Erwin Ranch provide a glimpse into the agricultural and social life existing alongside the energy sector.
