Dunnigan sits at the base of the Dunnigan Hills, serving as a central hub for the agricultural landscape of northern Yolo County in the early 1950s. The town is oriented along the Southern Pacific railroad line, which cuts diagonally across the valley floor, connecting the small settlement of Hershey to the northwest. This era shows an intensive water management system essential for Central Valley farming, defined by the massive Colusa Basin Drainage Canal and the Wilkins Slough Main Irrigation Canal which traverse the flatlands east of the hills.
