Los Banos is a city in Merced County, California, near the junction of California State Route 152 and Interstate 5. The name los banos has its origins with Spanish and was named after the nearby creek and the seasonal spring baths that feed natural wetlands in the western San Joaquín Valley. The original Spanish spelling was Los Baños, meaning "the baths". Its official spelling is without the eñe. However most official signs even on the Interstate 5 do insert the tilde above the n. It can be pronounced as if the eñe were present as in "los banyos" or as it is spelled, as an anglicized "loss bannis". The city is served by Los Banos Municipal Airport for air transport access. Los Banos is very proud of our family-oriented community, which has maintained its small-town atmosphere while accommodating continued growth.
