Merced, home to nearly 90,000 people, is the county seat of Merced County in the heart of the San Joaquin Valley. UC Merced, the newest University of California campus, along with Merced College and Mercy Medical Center bring steady daily traffic, while downtown's Main Street, Applegate Park and its zoo draw local families.
Merced is known as the Gateway to Yosemite: CA-140 carries park visitors east from town toward the national park. Billboards on CA-99, the valley's main north-south route between Fresno and Modesto, and on CA-140 and CA-59 reach commuters, farm and freight traffic, students and tourists.
Billboard advertising in Merced is an effective way to build brand awareness across Merced and Merced County. Prices on BillboardsIn range from about $600 to more than $4,000 per month. Cost depends mostly on location, traffic and visibility, along with board size, static vs. digital format and campaign length. Design, printing, shipping and installation are included in your total price, and our design team and templates make artwork easy.
