Over the past 25+ years, various High Desert economic development organizations have commissioned labor studies, (see pages 10-11), and for some time, “50% of the employed residents” became a widely accepted premise. Anecdotally today, estimates ranging from 58,000 to 90,000 have been heard when both public and private sector leaders speak of the High Desert out-commuter workforce. That question has been answered in this report with the most recent estimate from the Census Bureau’s OntheMap data application. Secondarily, the research endeavored to garner information useful to economic development efforts by the High Desert communities. In answering the commuter question, additional details came to light, including where High Desert residents commuted to—some as far as Los Angeles and San Diego—and also in what industry they worked— most in Health Care and Social Assistance. It is also interesting to note that 31,819 workers commute from Los Angeles and the greater Inland Empire into the High Desert to work. This report provides a detailed snapshot of the current workforce in the five incorporated communities of the High Desert. Included is a wide variety of data from demographics, educational attainment levels, population and housing growth, to community-specific workforce profiles, as well as industries of employment, and more. Recognizing the region’s labor force characteristics can provide insight into the local economy and why, if workforce is at the top of any business’s location decision model, it must also be top-of-mind for business and civic leaders’ in this region. This report draws no conclusions about the information presented. Instead, it is hoped the data in this report provides a foundation for considered deliberation and the motivation for regional stakeholder participation to address the challenges the High Desert may face in the coming decade. The resources used for the data within this report are readily available to the public. Hesperia staff accessed free data from OnTheMap for job counts, housing units, labor force and the accompanying maps. Census and 2015 demographics, including population, educational attainment, income levels, and commuting 8 High Desert 2016 2016 INTRODUCTION WORK FORCE distance and time come from the City of Hesperia’s subscription- only database through Buxton Co., the source of demographics for Opportunity High Desert (OHD), the regional economic development partnership. However, American Fact Finder can provide much of the same information at no charge. Other resources included the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS); Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA); Employment Development Department (EDD); and the County of San Bernardino Community Indicators Report, December 2015. Employment data used from OnTheMap are derived from payroll tax (unemployment insurance) payment records maintained by each state. Until quite recently, federal workers and self-employed jobs were not available in this jobs data, but now have been integrated and included in the 2014 release of data from OnTheMap. The states assign employer locations from Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW) data which also includes farm, self -employed and non-profit employees, while individual worker home locations are assigned by the U.S. Census Bureau using data from multiple Federal agencies. Final compilations and modeling is performed by the Census Bureau. Specific terms are found in the following pages, and for the purposes of this particular report, “Region” or “High Desert” includes only the five incorporated cities of Adelanto, Apple Valley, Barstow, Hesperia, and Victorville. “Within Region” workers include those who are residents of one of the five incorporated cities and who also work in one of the five cities. “Inflow” and In-Commuters are used interchangeably and include workers who are not residents of the five incorporated cities, but who work in one of the five cities. “Out of Region” commuters or Out-Commuters are those who are residents of one of the five cities, but who do not work in one of the five cities. For other terminology, a Glossary is included on pages 56—57. 9 High Desert WORK BACKGROUND FORCE 2016 2016 The incorporation in 1988 of two High Desert communities—the Town of Apple Valley and the City of Hesperia—marked the beginning of two decades of remarkable growth. With the low cost of housing fueling the region’s increasing population, job creation never kept pace, leaving a surplus of Regional Workers who commuted out of the High Desert for employment. And thus was borne what has become an age-old question of how many High Desert residents commute down the hill every day. Various reports from 1990 through 2009 first began with an estimated 50% of the regional population who drove south through the Cajon Pass for mortgage-paying salaries. 1990 1995 The City of Hesperia Economic In 1995, the now defunct High Desert Development Advisory Committee, in Regional Economic Development 1993, contracted with Keyser Marston Authority (HD REDA) commissioned Associates, Inc. to provide specific a resident commuter survey. Galbraith statistical and demographic Marketing Service conducted this mail information regarding the Victor survey to determine the number of Valley as a whole. This report revealed residents who, each day, left their that in 1990, nearly 50% of the homes in the High Desert and drove to employed residents in Adelanto, Apple jobs outside the region. Valley, Hesperia and Victorville At the time, the commonly held belief commuted to jobs in areas outside of was that 55,000 residents were out- the Victor Valley. commuters. However, the survey results found that between 48,000 and 50,000 High Desert residents made the daily trek south through the Cajon Pass for employment.

Lewis Community Center in Rancho Cucamonga to participate in the San Bernardino County Responders Organized for Pass Emergencies (ROPE) Table Top Exercise created by San Bernardino County Fire Department Office of Emergency Services and the ROPE Committee. The exercise scenario addressed the challenges of accessing the Cajon Pass after a 7.8 earthquake. With the San Andreas Fault cutting through southwestern San Bernardino County, which houses some of the most densely populated areas in the region, the likelihood of post-earthquake challenges in the Cajon Pass are evident. Due to the fact that the Cajon Pass incorporates a major transportation corridor (Interstate 15), rail, and utility resources; infrastructure coordinated operations are essential to the response and recovery of San Bernardino County and the Southern California region. The exercise focused on Incident Command objectives and priorities, Operational Communications and Operational Coordination, including strategic areas north and south of the Cajon Pass to facilitate emergency responses, along with analyzing any gaps within the ROPE planning process. At the conclusion of the exercise more than 100 participants now feel prepared to respond to an incident within the Cajon Pass using the newly established draft ROPE Standard Operating Guidelines (SOG) and the draft ROPE Field Operations Guide (FOG) for all-hazards.

  • The High Desert Alfalfa Production Region of California Is Located From
    ALFALFA PRODUCTION IN THE HIGH DESERT Steve B. Orloff and Rhonda R. Gildersleeve' ( The high desert alfalfa production region of California is located from the Mojave Desert which includes portions of Los Angeles, San Bernardino, and Kern Counties, north to Inyo and Mono Counties. Alfalfa fields in the high desertare clustered in isolated valleys with long stretchesof desert betweenthem. Thesevalleys are so isolated and dispersedthat the climate, growing conditions, soil types, and even the production practices and problems can vary considerably between production areas. The main alfalfa production areas and their characteristics are presentedin table 1. Many people mistakenly believe that "desert" is "desert", and lump the high desert with the low desert. However, those that are familiar with both areas realize there are very distinct differences. The climate in the high desert is unique, but has similarities with both the low desert and the colder northern parts of the state. The high desert climate is characterized by large swings in temperature, both from day to night and from summer to winter. Winter low temperatures between zero to ten degrees(negative 10 to 20 in the northern mountain valleys) have been recorded (particularly this last year), while summer temperatures exceeding 110 degrees commonly occur. A drop in temperature of 40 to 50 degreesbetween day and night is not uncommon. Spring frosts as late as April (and even June in northern high-elevation areas) are routine, and slow alfalfa growth. Winds are a common denominator throughout all of the high-desert valleys. Most areas have a prevailing "breeze" of 10 to 20 miles per hour during the day.

  • Keys Ranch: Where Time Stood Still
    National Park Service Teaching with Historic Places U.S. Department of the Interior Keys Ranch: Where Time Stood Still Keys Ranch: Where Time Stood Still (Photo by Harmon and Nelda King, National Park Service) In the high desert of California, flesh-colored boulders rise up out of the stark landscape and embrace a small valley where Keys Ranch stands. Strangely shaped trees cast long shadows on the sides of the simple wooden ranch structures. Animal tracks in the sand tell of the previous night's adventures when scorpions, kangaroo rats, snakes, and bobcats battled for survival. This seemingly hostile desert environment was settled much later than other more productive areas of the West. Yet it was here, in 1917, that Bill Keys chose to establish a ranch and raise a family. Keys and other 20th-century homesteaders lived much as earlier pioneers in the West had, working hard to make their marginal land holdings successful. Today, Keys Ranch is preserved as part of Joshua Tree National Park.
