Just north of the towns of Lancaster and Palmdale in Southern California, the area of Rosamond sits on the outskirts of the Mojave Desert. Nestled in the Antelope Valley, Rosamond finds itself in a unique location in easy driving distances of Southern California’s national forests and the sunny beaches of the Pacific Coast. Rosamond was originally founded as a railroad town, which then further supplemented the agricultural and cattle ranching industries in the region. It wasn’t long before gold was discovered in the region and attracted visitors and led to a boom in population. Today, visitors to Rosamond feel as though they’ve struck gold as they can easily explore the vast array of California wilderness.
