Munyon is a small, undeveloped place in Imperial County, California. It is known as an unincorporated community. This means it is a settlement that does not have its own local government. Instead, it is managed by the larger county government.

Where is Munyon Located?

Munyon is found in the southeastern part of California. It is about 8 miles (13 km) southeast of a town called Calipatria. This area is quite unique because Munyon sits at an elevation of 108 feet (33 meters) below sea level. Imagine being lower than the ocean!

Munyon's Railroad History

Munyon was once located along a branch of the Southern Pacific Railroad. Railroads were very important in the past for moving goods and people. Even though the branch is no longer active, its history is part of Munyon's story.
