Tulare County, with a population of nearly 434,000, is located in the heart of Central California at the base of the Sierra Nevada mountain range known as the "Sequoia Valley". Tulare County grew at a rate of about 18 percent from 2000-2008 and is expected to continue growing at double-digit and nearly double-digit rates over the next five years. The median age is 29.6 years with an estimated 58 percent of the population in the prime working age group (18 to 65 years of age).

Strategically located, Tulare County offers excellent transportation access to all of California and the west coast. This along with seismic stability makes Tulare County a desirable distribution point for many major corporations. Companies such as Best Buy Co., Wal-Mart, JoAnn Stores and VF Outdoor, Inc. have chosen Tulare County to locate their west coast distribution centers.

Tulare County is also recognized as the largest agricultural-producing county in the world and ranks number one in the state, as well as the nation, for total milk production.
