Stockton is situated amidst the farmland of California's San Joaquin Valley, a subregion of the Central Valley. In and around Stockton are thousands of miles of waterways, which make up the California Delta. Interstate 5 and State Route 99, inland California's major north-south highways, pass through the city.
The county is one of the most agriculturally rich regions in California and is the number one producer, statewide, of asparagus.
