Tulare County was established in 1852, and named after the now-dry Tulare Lake, which at the time was the largest freshwater lake west of the Mississippi; the site of the former lake today lies in neighboring Kings County, which was created in 1893 from the western portion of Tulare County.

The county's economy is dominated by agriculture, particularly the dairy industry which accounts for over $1 billion annually. Because of its position as one of the leading agricultural counties in the nation and the World Ag Expo and the largest outdoor agricultural exposition, has been held annually in Tulare and attracts more than 100,000 attendees.
