The city was founded in 1852 and incorporated in 1874. A city charter was enacted in 1923 and later amended in 1974. The city was named after the ancestral home of one of its earliest settlers, Nathaniel Vise. At one time a creek-side settlement, it has evolved into a thriving community which is able to maintain a small town feel with large city amenities. Historically, the city has based its economy mostly upon agriculture and related industries. In recent years, however, the city has diversified its economic base to include many other types of industrial enterprises.
Located to the northeast is Sequoia National Park, housing groves of Giant Sequoia trees including the most massive on earth, the “General Sherman.” Nearby cities include Fresno (approximately 44 miles to the northwest) and Bakersfield (approximately 75 miles to the south).
