North Clovis: planned communities, family-first living
North Clovis is where Clovis grows forward: master-planned villages like Harlan Ranch and Loma Vista, award-winning Clovis Unified schools, pools and parks at the end of the street, and the mountains a short drive from the front door. We know these communities well, and we can help you find your fit, no pressure.
The overview ★ A city building for its families
Where Clovis' best addresses keep rising
North Clovis, across ZIP codes 93611 and 93619, is the growing edge of the city, and it was designed for family life from the start. Harlan Ranch, a master-planned village of roughly 1,500 homes, is built around a central town green, with pools, splash pads, parks, walking trails, and an amphitheater woven into the neighborhood.
Nearby, Loma Vista is one of the largest planned communities in the area, with its own urban-village center still taking shape, and Heritage Grove and Buchanan Estates add more choice in style and size. Schools anchor the appeal: Buchanan High, Clovis North High, and elementaries like Reagan and Bud Rank are Clovis Unified standouts, which brings families from across the valley to look here first.
Daily life is amenity-rich: the Dry Creek Preserve borders the neighborhoods, the city's trail network ties everything together, and Highway 41 keeps downtown Fresno about 15 to 20 minutes away. It is a lot of home for the money, with room to grow that other parts of the valley simply do not have.

What It's Like to Live Here in North Clovis
Parks, pools, and trails
Harlan Ranch alone offers about 11 parks, multiple pools, a splash pad, a community center, and an amphitheater around the town green. The Dry Creek Preserve sits right beside the neighborhood for nature walks, and the city's 13-mile rail-trail system keeps runners and cyclists connected all the way to the rest of Clovis.
Communities with an identity
Each master plan has its own character: the town-green social life of Harlan Ranch, the scale and future village center of Loma Vista, the builder-designed streets of Heritage Grove, and the established lots of Buchanan Estates. Pick your style, and the amenities come with the street plan.
Schools worth the address
Buchanan High opened in 1991 and is one of the most sought-after schools in the region, sharing the north Clovis feeder pattern with Clovis North High and Alta Sierra Intermediate. Reagan and Bud Rank elementaries sit inside the communities themselves, which is why families say the schools are half the reason they move here.
Getting around
Highway 41 is the fast lane west and south, downtown Fresno sits about 15 to 20 minutes away, and Highway 168 connects to the eastern valley. Shopping corridors along Shaw, Willow, and Herndon handle daily life, and the Sierra gateway roads are close for weekend drives.
