Tulare: TUL-99-AT BARDSLEY AVE

Tucked into California’s southern San Joaquin Valley, Tulare is a city whose character is shaped by irrigated agriculture and the valley’s broad, level floor. Dairy farming, field crops and related businesses remain central to the local economy in this inland part of the Central Valley. The city’s name recalls the tule reeds that once grew in the region’s wetlands, including the historic Tulare Lake basin. Tulare is also home to the International Agri-Center, where World Ag Expo brings the agricultural industry together each February. Its streets provide a practical base for following the working landscapes between the Sierra Nevada and California’s Coast Ranges.

California occupies a long Pacific coastal belt in the United States. Its terrain ranges from the Sierra Nevada and the fertile Central Valley to deserts in the southeast and the rugged shores of the Pacific Ocean. The state includes both Mount Whitney, the highest point in the contiguous United States, and extensive protected lands such as Yosemite National Park. California’s cities have exerted worldwide influence through film, technology, agriculture, and music; Hollywood remains an enduring symbol of the American screen industry. Its scale means climates and local character can change dramatically from one county to the next. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of California.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
