Old Town Victorville boasts an eclectic selection of antique stores and specialty shops and is home to the nostalgic Route 66 Museum. The Victor Valley Museum, located at Jess Ranch in Apple Valley, provides a look at local history, and the Apple Valley Science and Technology Center gives kids of all ages a glimpse of the future.

The San Bernardino County Fair in Victorville livens up each spring with carnival rides, livestock competitions, exhibits, a rodeo, a demolition derby, celebrity concerts and much more. Throughout the year the fairgrounds plays host to many other activities including the annual High Desert Opportunity Business Outlook Conference, Home & Garden Show, and Fourth of July Fireworks Spectacular.

Among the other cultural and recreational options are the High Desert Mavericks, a championship triple A baseball team located on the city's western border in Adelanto. There are 13 city parks, as well as teen centers, baseball diamonds, tennis and racquet ball courts and so much more. The City also boasts movie theaters, golf courses, and over a hundred restaurants serving everything from fast food to gourmet cuisine.

Located 2,875 feet above sea level, Victorville provides a taste of all seasons, from winter snow to spring blossoms and summer sunshine. The weather is usually delightful. The prevailing winds flow off of the Pacific Ocean to the south and are a major force in keeping the air smog-free.  The annual rainfall in the desert is about 3.9 inches a year -- which means low humidity throughout the year.
