Adorning the entrance of Van Ness Avenue is a sign that declares Fresno to be “The Best Little City in the U.S.A.” Situated in the middle of California, Fresno is the Central Valley’s crown jewel for numerous reasons, which vary from proximity to affordability. Many have eagerly endeavored to leave their mark on the city over the years, regardless of the challenges that may have stood in the way. Now, the City of Fresno is pulling back the red tape, and rolling out the red carpet. Under the leadership of the newly elected mayor, Jerry Dyer, the greater Fresno area has much to look forward to in the coming years.
