Merced

Merced was incorporated in 1889; the City offers a rich and varied living environment with a unique blend of old and new. Merced offers downtown shopping, well-maintained residential neighborhoods, and many structures of historical significance. For the outdoor lover there is fishing and water sports close at hand, with several streams and lakes located within easy driving distance.

Merced is less than two hours by car from Yosemite Village National Park. Monterey Bay, and the Pacific Ocean are also close to Merced.

Merced is located in Merced County (of which it is the county seat) north of Fresno between Modesto and Madera along Highway 99 on the banks of the Merced River near the San Joaquin River and Lake McClure.

Merced is part of the Merced, California metro area.
