Why build an ADU in Victorville.
Victorville offers some of the most favorable ADU economics in Southern California. Lot sizes are large, land costs are low compared to the urban Inland Empire, and the city's regulatory environment is among the most permissive in the region — low impact fees, expanded transit-corridor height, and a streamlined plan-check process. Long-term rental demand is strong from Southern California Logistics Airport (formerly George AFB) employees, the substantial federal and county government workforce, and commuters using Metrolink to reach jobs in San Bernardino, Riverside, and L.A. County. The High Desert tenant pool is also more stable than the urban Inland Empire — turnover tends to be lower and lease terms longer. Property values have appreciated substantially over the past five years, which has compounded ADU appraisal lift meaningfully for early adopters.
