    • County of San Benito

     

    Located in California’s Central Coast region, 130 miles south of San Francisco, San Benito County (pop. 62,808) maintains a rural feel while offering a strong sense of community and historic charm in the County’s two incorporated cities and three unincorporated towns. The County encompasses almost 1,400 square miles and was formed from parts of Monterey County in 1874. 


    Agriculture, by acreage, is San Benito County’s largest industry with fertile valley soil supporting some of the most productive farmland in the state. Cool ocean air regulates the County’s temperature resulting in warm summers and mild winters perfect for enjoying the many outdoor pursuits available in the area. 

    San Benito County offers visitors and residents a wide array of “hidden” treasures. In February of 2013, the majestic mountains of Pinnacles National Monument were officially designated at the 59th National Park in the U.S. The County’s emerging wine country offers highly acclaimed and award-winning wines set among the scenic landscape of the area. Home to mission San Juan Bautista, the County also offers the enjoyment of an array of outdoor recreational activities, Agri-tourism, public library, museums, art festivals and galleries. The ideal proximity situated between the Silicon Valley and Monterey Bay provides easy access to the numerous amenities of the big city, while still offering an idyllic and scenic setting with affordable housing and a quality lifestyle.
