About San Joaquin
San Joaquin (~4,000 residents) is a tiny farm city on the west side of Fresno County — one of the smallest incorporated cities in the metro. It is a quiet, rural community where the school district, the park, and Main Street are the civic core. Peter Rusconi Park (with the Leo Cantu Community Center, skate park, basketball court, and picnic areas) is the recreation hub, and Maria's Mexico Restaurant is a Main Street staple. Residents head to nearby Kerman for the Almond Festival (first Saturday of May) and the four-day Harvest Festival (September).
