2012 Map of Los Banos

About this map

Los Banos and its surrounding agricultural landscape are defined by an intricate network of irrigation and drainage infrastructure in the San Joaquin Valley. The city's northern expansion is bounded by the Los Banos Game Bird Farm and industrial parcels, while the eastern fringes are dominated by the San Pedro Canal and Mud Slough Bypass. This 2012 survey illustrates the importance of water management in Merced County, showing how the West Delta Canal and Midway Canal segment the fertile lowlands. Local history and genealogy interest is concentrated near the southern city limits at Los Banos Cem and Calvary Cem. Beyond the residential blocks, the terrain gives way to significant water bodies like Big Water Lake and the marshy expanses of Mud Slough, alongside specialized agricultural operations such as Rodoni Dairy Farms.
