Agriculture and railroads shape Pixley’s small town
Pixley is a rural farming community in the San Juaquin Valley, surrounded on all sides by farmland and orchards, about 18 miles away from Tulare. Originally settled in the 1880s, the town quickly dominated Tulare County’s agriculture and dairy industries, with direct access to the Southern Pacific railroad. As the town grew into what it is today, Main Street has become an area of commerce for the community, with a handful of retail and local restaurants.

Main Street’s shops and restaurants, plus nearby Tulare
Main Street’s commercial corridor is Pixley’s primary area for shopping and dining. “There’s not much shopping here. A couple of Mexican restaurants and convenience stores, mostly,” says Sherri Camargo, real estate broker and owner of Majestic Palm Realty, who has over 20 years of experience. Pixley Food Center is the town’s grocery store, and there are multiple butcher shops selling fresh cuts, such as Don Panchos Meat Market. Local restaurants include Tacos Alejandra and Charros Express Mexican Food. Mi Michoacana is an ice cream shop. Retail options include a handful of auto parts stores and Dollar General.
For more options, Tulare has a wide selection of national retailers and big-box stores. Nike and Tommy Hilfiger are two of the many name brands at the Tulare Outlets. Plaza Del Lago has Walmart, Foods Co and a handful of fast-food restaurants like Panda Express, In-N-Out Burger and Raising Cane’s.

Tulare County’s public schools have quality programs
Children living in Pixley can attend schools in the Pixley Elementary School District. Pixley Elementary School and Pixley Middle School both earn C grades from Niche and provide an English Language Development program for those who are bilingual. From there, students can attend the B-rated Mission Oak High School, which is in the Tulare Joint Union High School District. “There’s no high school in Pixley itself, since it’s such a small town,” Camargo says. Career-minded students can participate in its Academy of Engineering or Future Farmers of America club.
