Oro Grande delivers small-town breathing room with big-sky desert views along the Mojave River and historic Route 66. Set in San Bernardino County, it sits between Victorville and Barstow, making daily errands, jobs, and weekend adventures easy while keeping a quieter pace at home. Classic roadside landmarks, wide open acreage, and starry nights give the community an unmistakable High Desert character.
Families appreciate the local schools. The Oro Grande School District oversees programs from early grades through innovative charters, including the K–12 Riverside Preparatory School known for strong academics, arts, and athletics. Nearby learning extends beyond the classroom at the California Route 66 Museum, where local history and Americana come alive, and at county libraries and makerspaces across the Victor Valley.
Weekends invite you outside. The Mojave Narrows Regional Park offers fishing, camping, equestrian trails, and playgrounds along rare desert wetlands. Off-roaders and hikers head for vast public lands and OHV areas just south of town, while day trips to Calico Ghost Town, mountain lakes, and Joshua Tree are within easy reach via the I‑15 and Route 66 corridors.
Housing in Oro Grande ranges from equestrian properties and manufactured homes to larger parcels that welcome workshops, RVs, and gardens. Many residents commute a short distance for work while enjoying sunsets, space, and a neighborly feel at home.
