2012 Map of Chowchilla

About this map

Madera County's agricultural landscape is defined by an intricate network of irrigation and dairy production in this 2012 survey. The area around Dairyland is segmented by essential water infrastructure, including the Ash Slough Bypass Canal, Robertson Lateral, and the Califa Canal, which support a dense concentration of named family operations. From the Faust Family Dairy in the northwest to the Avila Family Dairy and Triangle M Dairy in the south, these labels provide a specific record of land use and ownership. The town site itself is anchored by the Madera County Fairgrounds and the Po, while the surrounding rural blocks contain family landmarks like Wolfshorndl Farms and the Bench G Ranch. The alignment of Railroad Ave and Railroad Dr underscores the historical importance of rail transport in moving the region's agricultural output to market.
