Newman

Newman is a dynamic and growing place with a strong sense of community. It is named for Simon Newman, a local merchant who donated the land. The City is located on the western side of the Stanislaus River Valley and features stunning views of the Diablo Range set in the distance.

Complementing its historic downtown commercial center, Newman is nestled amidst a rich agricultural area. Dairy farming and food processing are among the major contributors to the local economy. The City hosts the Newman Fall Festival every September.
