Borden

Built around a railroad stop, Borden developed into a small unincorporated community on the eastern floor of California’s San Joaquin Valley. In Madera County, it stands east-southeast of the city of Madera, amid irrigated farmland typical of this part of the Central Valley. The San Joaquin River flows south of the settlement, while the Sierra Nevada forms a distant eastern horizon beyond the valley. Borden’s post office operated briefly from 1892 to 1893, a modest marker of early settlement in a landscape shaped by rail connections and agriculture.
