Present Land Use
Pixley is square in shape and is bisected in a north-south direction by State Route 99, which runs east of and parallel to the Southern Pacific Railroad tracks. Local roads that provide access across SR 99 include East Court Avenue, Davis Avenue, and Terra Bella Avenue (interchange). Local railroad crossings are located at Davis Avenue and Terra Bella Avenue. Pixley is an agriculturally oriented service community surrounded on all sides by agricultural production land, rural residential uses, and vacant land. Harmon Field is a public airport located southwest of the community, and there is industrial development to the north and south of the community. Most of the commercial development within Pixley is located between the SPRR tracks and SR 99.
