Rosamond is a town located in Kern County, California, 20 miles North of Palmdale, in the Antelope Valley, the westernmost desert valley of the Mojave Desert.

However, those numbers do include active duty military personnel and their family members; thus, the numbers reflect many individuals who are temporary residents.
