Sitting between San Jose and the Sierra National Forest, the city of Merced features a distinct downtown district with local restaurants, markets, and small businesses. In Downtown Merced, residents have access to the Merced Multicultural Arts Center and the Merced County Courthouse Museum. Kids love the Merced’s Applegate Park Zoo, and parents adore the excellent public schools such as Herbert Hoover Middle School.
The Michael O. Sullivan Bike Path sits along the creek and is a major perk for cyclers in the area. Commuters are pleased with the city as well for its convenience highway access and Amtrak station. Though Merced is a bustling metropolis, it has a secluded feel, surrounded by mountainous terrain and dense forests. A few miles outside of Downtown, venture over to the Merced National Wildlife Refuge, featuring 10 acres of wetlands and grasslands, wildlife sightings, and beautiful views.
