Yermo: I-15 : (623) First St. OC

About location

Yermo has served as a railroad community in California’s Mojave Desert since the early 20th century. The settlement lies along Interstate 15, a principal route between Southern California and Las Vegas, close to where Interstate 40 heads east across the desert. Low, arid ranges frame a broad basin of creosote scrub and open sand, characteristic of the Mojave’s high-desert terrain. North of town, the Calico Mountains contain Calico, a former silver-mining settlement founded in 1881 and preserved as Calico Ghost Town. Yermo remains a small but practical stop in a landscape shaped by rail freight, long-distance highways and the mining history of San Bernardino County.

California occupies a long Pacific coastal belt in the United States. Its terrain ranges from the Sierra Nevada and the fertile Central Valley to deserts in the southeast and the rugged shores of the Pacific Ocean. The state includes both Mount Whitney, the highest point in the contiguous United States, and extensive protected lands such as Yosemite National Park. California’s cities have exerted worldwide influence through film, technology, agriculture, and music; Hollywood remains an enduring symbol of the American screen industry. Its scale means climates and local character can change dramatically from one county to the next. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of California.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
