Apartments for Rent in Joshua Tree, CA with Garages

While the desert surrounding Joshua Tree may at first glance appear hostile and uninhabitable by anything but a snake, it naturally supports more than 240 species of birds, 800 species of plants, 41 types of mammals, and 40 kinds of reptiles. Humans have lived in the area for more than 5,000 years, as evidenced by nearly 100 historic structures in the vicinity. The town narrowly missed being named Turkey Town, as domestic turkeys outnumbered residents by more than 200 to one in the town's early days. Wild turkeys still thrive in the area.

The small city of Joshua Tree straddles the 29 Palms Highway just outside the northern edge of Joshua Tree National Park
