In The Mesa, country charm blends with suburban amenities

Driving along The Mesa's dusty neighborhood roads makes its place within the somewhat rural city of Hesperia clear. Surrounded by the Mojave Desert, space and privacy are on offer here, drawing in those who want a quieter life. "We have a mixed community of locals who were born and raised in the high desert, but we also have families moving from LA County and Orange County, so it is pretty diverse," says Neil Tinajero of Realty One Group Empire, a broker who's been in the business for 20-plus years. Fishing spots and camping grounds are easy to find from The Mesa, but so is a robust array of shopping and dining.
Residents of The Mesa enjoy a sense of privacy with homes sitting on large spacious yards.

Homebuyers can find diverse housing, and some new construction

"Homes aren't cookie-cutter in The Mesa," says Juan Martinez, a Realtor for over 20 years who works with All in 1 Real Estate Services. The neighborhood's diverse architectural styles range from contemporary to Craftsman to ranch. Streets are winding and springing with desert shrubs, palms, oaks and Italian cypress as the mountains rise in the distance. Home prices generally range from around $355,000 to $895,000, depending on size and condition. Yards are spacious and often left in a natural desert state. Many properties are from the 1980s, but the progressive development after that era means buyers can also find newer construction.
The Mesa's diverse architectural styles range from mid-century to ranch homes.

Parks stocked for fishing, and a club for golfers

Hesperia Lake Park serves local anglers and campers on The Mesa's southeastern edge. The park regularly stocks its lake with rainbow trout, and its small store sells bait and tackle. Grills and picnic benches dot the grounds for grilling and dining on fresh catches. The John Swisher Community Center is also on-site, offering an intimate venue locals can rent for parties and events. Hesperia Golf and Country Club is another spot, offering a semi-private championship course. Lime Street Park is just north, with a swimming pool, athletic courts, skate park and a dog park with sections for larger and smaller pups.
There are several tennis and pickleball courts at Lime Street Park in Downtown Hesperia.

Lots of shops and restaurants nearby

The neighborhood's Mile High Cafe serves up American comfort food, and more options are on Main Street, including La Casita Cafe for Mexican and Golden Garden Restaurant for Chinese food. "But the main area where everybody goes is Restaurant Row, on Bear Valley and Amargosa [around 10 miles away]," Martinez says. "Restaurant Row's" eateries include casual chains from Farmer Boys to Freddy's Frozen Custard and Steakburgers to locally owned favorites like Thai Dawn Bistro. The Mall of Victor Valley is in the same area with over 120 stores, including Dick's Sporting Goods and JCPenney. Vallarta Supermarkets is nearby for groceries, within 2 miles of The Mesa.

Local traditions and a place to worship on Sunday

The Hesperia Days Parade in September has been a city tradition for over 70 years. The parade inspires residents to decorate their floats with different themes. In December, those celebrating Christmas enjoy a tree-lighting ceremony hosted at Hesperia Civic Plaza Park. The main church in The Mesa is High Desert Church, serving the evangelical community.
