2015 Map of Delano East

About this map

The agricultural landscape of the San Joaquin Valley is defined by a rigorous grid of section lines and irrigation infrastructure in this mid-2010s survey. The city of Delano occupies the southwestern quadrant, showing a dense residential layout extending from 9th Ave up toward the industrial and transport corridor. Critical water management is evident through the path of the Friant-Kern Canal and the natural course of the White River, which together sustain the productive Central Valley floor. Small established points like Jovista and Trocha sit along the Tulare Co Kern Co boundary line, representing the historic small-scale settlements that dot the region's massive orchard and field operations. To the southeast, the Delano Municipal Airport and the undulating terrain of Rag Gulch mark the transition from flat valley bottom to the rising eastern foothills.
