Dinuba is a city in Tulare County, California, United States. The population was 24,563 at the 2020 census, up from 21,453 at the 2010 census. It is part of the Visalia-Porterville metropolitan statistical area. The Alta District Museum is located in Dinuba in a restored railroad station; the museum has a collection of materials that illustrate local history.
The name of the city is of unknown origin. Various theories about the origin exist, including that it is a misspelled reference to the Danubian people, who resisted the Romans in antiquity. It may instead be a fanciful name applied by railroad construction engineers at the time the branch line was built in this area. The city's original name was Sibleyville, named for James Sibley, who deeded 240 acres to the Pacific Improvement Company (Southern Pacific Company).
