Since this time, the area has grown to include numerous businesses including agriculture producers, retail shops, technology companies, public school districts, colleges, and several other major employers. Adelanto is a desirable location, near many other small cities including Hesperia, Apple Valley, Yucaipa, and Helendale. It’s close to plenty of shops & restaurants, as well as recreation areas including the California Tralee Golf Course.
