Bell Mountain is an unincorporated community in the Victor Valley region of the Mojave Desert, within San Bernardino County, southern California.

It is north of Apple Valley, east of Interstate 15, and 8 miles (13 km) northeast of Victorville.

[1] The town lies at 3,082 feet above sea level[citation needed] on Dale Evans Parkway.

[1] The rural community of Bell Mountain was founded in 1904 when a group of black homesteaders from Los Angeles began settling on government land around Victorville, California.

Their goal was to become landowners and to create a prosperous, “all-black” agricultural community in the desert outskirts of Los Angeles.
