Moving to Parlier, CA
About Parlier
Parlier (~15,000 residents) is a small farm city in the heart of Fresno County's raisin and tree-fruit belt, between Sanger and Reedley. The Parlier family migrated from Illinois in 1876, and wheat soon gave way to grapes, raisins, and tree fruit — crops the area still ships worldwide. Parlier Unified School District is the city's largest employer, and the nearby Kearney Agricultural Research and Extension Center and USDA research stations make the area a hub of agricultural science. The Kings River and Sierra foothills are close by for fishing, boating, and hiking. Parlier High's agriculture program — with its working school farm — is a point of local pride.
