Desert Valley Hinkley Offers Fertile Oasis For Home Seekers
The Riverside County Fair highlights Hinkley Valley in San Bernardino County as a promising desert farming area. Rich water from an underground reservoir supports alfalfa, poultry, dairying, and orchards with potential profits higher than coastal regions. Land prices range $25 to $300 per acre with major development tied to water supply. Barstow lies nearby as a rail hub on the Santa Fe line.
