Small-town vibes and a steady housing market for Delhi
Delhi sits between Turlock and Merced in California's San Joaquin Valley. “There’s definitely a small-town feel here,” says Martin Villanueva, a 20-year Realtor with Realty Executives. “Locals like living here because it’s close to Modesto, where they work, and there’s not a lot of traffic in town, so it’s easier for people to get around.” The name is pronounced Dell-High and not like the city in India. The name comes from the nearby Delta Highline Canal, now known as the Delta-Mendota Canal. Housing prices here are about $55,000 less than in Turlock. Delhi’s proximity to the Merced River offers recreational opportunities, and students can access after-school programs at district schools and attend nearby community colleges.

Local highway and regional transit
Golden State Highway (State Route 99) runs through the city and leads 20 miles northwest to Modesto and 20 miles southeast to Merced. Folks mainly use their cars to run errands, though Merced’s Regional Transit System, The Bus, operates within Delhi. Most city streets are bicycle-friendly, and neighborhoods provide sidewalks. Local hospitals include Emanuel Medical Center, 7 miles north, and Dignity Health, roughly 23 miles southeast. Merced Regional Airport is about a 22-minute drive.
Decreasing violent crime rates and hot summers
Crime statistics for Delhi are not available, but the county’s violent crime rates have decreased while property crime rates have increased. Villanueva says Delhi experiences hot summers with dry heat, with temperatures reaching over 100 degrees. “Over the last few years, we really haven’t had an extremely cold winter. Temperatures will only get as low as the 40s.”
