Stevinson is a small unincorporated community in western Merced County, located in the flat San Joaquin Valley near Los Banos. Served by ZIP code 95374, Stevinson's residential properties are predominantly older single-family homes on flat valley terrain surrounded by cotton and alfalfa fields. The agricultural setting means minimal shading and excellent solar exposure — most Stevinson roofs have clear south-facing orientation ideal for solar production. Summer temperatures regularly hit 95–105°F, and PG&E bills for a typical home run $180–$340 during peak cooling months. Stevinson's rural character and older housing stock mean that panel upgrades are common before solar installation. Robbins Energy serves Stevinson through Merced County Building Department permits and handles all PG&E interconnection paperwork.
