Historical Data	The town of Apple Valley, nicknamed the "Apple of the Desert", is located in the Victor Valley of San Bernardino County and was incorporated on November 14, 1988. It is located at the southern edge of the Mojave Desert and is bordered by Victorville on the west, and Hesperia on the southwest sides. Its elevation is approximately 2,900 feet above sea level, and the primary thoroughfare is State Route 18. For centuries Shoshonean, Paiute, Vanyume, Chemehueve, Serrano and Mojave tribes populated Apple Valley, and throughout the 19th century, it became a thoroughfare of people traveling to Southern California for various reasons. Today, is best known for two of its most famous residents: Roy Rogers and Dale Evans, who resided on Outer Highway 18, and whose museum was first established in Apple Valley in 1967.
