Earlimart is an unincorporated community in Tulare County, California, United States. At the 2020 census, the CDP population was 7,679, down from 8,537 at the 2010 census.[2] For statistical purposes, the Census Bureau defines Earlimart as a census-designated place (CDP).
History
In the early 1890s, the Dalton Gang was accused and convicted of robbing a Southern Pacific Railroad train at Earlimart, when the community was known as Alila.[3]
Community members changed its name to Earlimart in 1910, choosing that name because the variety of melons grown by local farmers ripened early, and thus were considered “early to market”—hence, “Earli-mart.” Tulare County's Earlimart branch library was established in October 1914 in the Alila School.
Geography
According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of 2.9 square miles (7.5 km2), all of it land.[1]
