Health and Safety Services at the Heart of Tesoro Viejo’s Town Center

What makes a neighborhood feel like home? Is it the tree-lined streets or the peace of knowing your family is protected? At Tesoro Viejo, health and safety services are built into the master-planned design, giving residents all of the above.

The Town Center is the hub of daily life, where medical care, fire protection, and law enforcement services sit alongside the coffee shop, gathering spaces, and community events. It’s a place designed for connection and security. Let’s take a closer look at how Tesoro Viejo keeps both at the heart of its community.

Comprehensive Health Services Just Steps Away

At the center of Tesoro Viejo’s Town Center is the Camarena Wellness Center, which provides medical, dental, behavioral health, and health education services. Imagine the difference when you can walk to a doctor’s appointment instead of driving across town. That kind of convenience changes the way families manage their care.

The San Joaquin Valley’s population has grown by 110% over the past four decades, with the senior population increasing by 164%. Having accessible care nearby helps meet the needs of a growing, multi-generational community.

Just steps from home, residents can rely on services such as:

  • Preventive care that keeps families healthy year-round
  • Fitness and wellness programs that support long-term health
  • Health education & nutrition

Fire Protection and Emergency Response Close to Home

Public safety feels different when you know help is close. Tesoro Viejo is home to Madera County Fire Station No. 7, a vital part of the community’s essential services and a key layer of protection for its residents. The station in the Town Center is staffed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, with firefighters trained for emergency medical assistance.

California continues to face significant wildfire and residential fire risks, with thousands of structure fires reported annually. For families with children or aging parents, the presence of a local station offers steady reassurance and strengthens the sense of security at Tesoro Viejo.

A Safer Community with On-Site Law Enforcement

Tesoro Viejo’s Town Center is also home to a Sheriff Substation. Having an on-site substation means a visible presence throughout the community.

Madera County reports an overall crime rate of about 27.5 per 1,000 residents. Compared to many larger metro regions, that’s relatively calm. With law enforcement integrated into Tesoro Viejo, families not only feel safer day to day but also know their homes and investments are better protected in the long run.

The Welcome Center: Connection Beyond Safety

While the Town Center brings together all these essential services, the Welcome Center adds a layer of warmth and connection. It’s where residents gather for a cup of coffee at AXIS Coffee Bar + Eatery, meet friends, or simply pause in a space designed for the Tesoro Viejo community.

A Lifestyle That Goes Beyond Essentials

  • The community is walkable, which reduces driving and encourages connection.

  • In 2008, an on-site tree nursery was planted with 10,000 trees, 10 years before construction began at Tesoro Viejo.
