Tulare County covers approximately 4,850 square miles in the southern San Joaquin Valley, bordered by Fresno County to the north and Kern County to the south. Visalia, the county seat, is the dominant commercial center and anchors the county's retail, healthcare, and professional services market. Porterville, on the county's eastern edge in the Tule River foothills, is the second-largest city. Tulare, Exeter, Lindsay, Dinuba, and Farmersville are smaller agricultural cities in the valley floor.
The county is one of the leading agricultural producing counties in the United States. Dairy operations are highly concentrated — Tulare County has consistently ranked among the top dairy-producing counties nationally. Citrus (navel oranges, Valencia oranges, mandarins) and table grapes are major crops with associated packing and cold-storage operations. Cotton and other field crops round out the agricultural base. The eastern portion of the county includes portions of Sequoia National Park, which drives regional tourism into Three Rivers and the Mineral King corridor.
