Tulare County was established in 1852, and named after the now-dry Tulare Lake, which at the time was the largest freshwater lake west of the Mississippi.
The county's economy is dominated by agriculture, particularly the dairy industry which accounts for over $1 billion annually.
Because of its position as one of the leading agricultural counties in the country, the World Ag Expo, the largest outdoor agricultural exposition, has been held annually in Tulare and attracts more than 100,000 attendees.
