North Madera, a community near downtown, parks and entertainment
North Madera is an established residential community between undeveloped land and Downtown Madera, about 25 miles from Fresno. “It is more of a country feel, a retreat from the city,” says Marisela Ramos, a Realtor with Real Broker since 2022. “North Madera is ideal for those looking to relocate from the Bay Area. It’s close to major freeways and local businesses.”

Nearby, cars race around the short track at the Madera Speedway from March to November. “During the season, the speedway is a fan favorite, and people come from all over the place to race and spectate,” she says.
