Fiona Ma’s 58 Counties. 1 California. series has continued through California’s Gold Country and Sierra foothills, with recent stops highlighting communities including El Dorado, Amador, Calaveras, Tuolumne, Sierra and Placer counties.
The region reflects both California’s history and its future — from historic downtowns and small businesses to community colleges, rural infrastructure and rapidly growing communities.
Fiona’s approach to the series is simple: statewide leaders need to understand the very different realities facing communities outside California’s largest metropolitan areas. That means listening to local residents, educators, business owners and civic leaders and seeing the challenges firsthand.
