Modesto City-County Airport was the nation's first municipally-owned airport, opening in 1918. Over the years it grew to its present size of 435 acres (176 ha). The airport started with a single runway; a second was added in the 1950s. During World War II the airport was an auxiliary training airfield for Stockton Army Airfield.

Scheduled passenger flights started in 1946 when United Airlines opened its new terminal and began the Valley Queen service. United served Modesto with Douglas DC-3s, Convair 340s, and Douglas DC-6s and began Boeing 737-200 flights in 1968. United dropped Modesto in the winter of 1979-80, after the deregulation of the airline industry.

In 2023, the Airport hosted the Commemorative Air Force Central California Valley Squadron which showcased planes from World War II.

Modesto City is surrounded by rich farmland. Stanislaus County ranks sixth among California counties in farm production.It is home to Gallo Family Winery, the largest family-owned winery in the USA.
