Cutler much like many communities in the Central Valley experienced an influx of immigrants from Mexico over the past 50 years. Where once it was an Anglo dominated community is now primarily a Hispanic dominated community. The larger populations from Mexico that encompass the community derive from Michoacan, Zacatecas and Nuevo Leon with a smaller population deriving from Sinaloa. Filipinos have also made their presence felt as they have added their rich culture to both communities of Cutler-Orosi. Filipinos along with their distinct dialect of Ilocano and Tagalog have introduced their rich foods such as Lumpia, Adobo, and Lechon to name a few. ==Government==
