About

Gateways

Gateways, located between I-99 and UC Merced, is a residential and campus-adjacent Merced neighborhood with newer subdivisions and wide arterial roads. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the G Street corridor near downtown, where taquerias, coffee counters, and small storefronts set a steady, everyday pace. Architectural cues lean contemporary—stucco exteriors, planned streets, and pocket parks—paired with open views toward the valley’s flat horizon. A short drive away, the Merced Multicultural Arts Center adds a gallery-and-performance note to the local routine. The Merced County Courthouse Museum and the Mainzer Theater give downtown a classic civic-and-cinema backdrop. Lake Yosemite frames the area’s outdoor rhythm with shoreline paths and broad water views.
