Why Live in Tipton
Miles of farmland surrounds Tipton, a rural town in the central San Joaquin Valley. “It’s a nice, cute little farming community,” says Sherri Camargo, real estate broker and owner of Majestic Palm Realty, who has over 20 years of experience. “The town itself has more of your average residential lots, but the farms are outside of town.” A handful of small businesses are central to the highway, and Tulare is around 13 miles north. Tipton acts as a halfway point, about 50 miles to both Fresno, in the north, and Bakersfield, in the south. Most homes in Tipton are located close to the highway along semi-gridded residential streets. Grassy front lawns are adorned with palm trees, fences and driveways, and many properties have alleyway access. Minimal traditional single-story houses are common, alongside ranch-style homes. These properties were built between the 1940s and 1980s and range from $250,000 to $350,000. Some have a simple vinyl exterior, while others feature stucco siding. Two-story homes are rare, but there are a handful of mid-century American foursquares with front porches.
