Antelope Valley Healthcare District is located in Lancaster, California.  If you enjoy a small town feel, but your lifestyle requires the amenities found only in large cities, Lancaster is the perfect mix.  Can you see yourself surfing and playing on the beach, in Los Angeles enjoying world class shopping and cousin, or skiing at Mt. High?  Lancaster is only a short drive away from all of this.  In the time most people commute to and from work you could reach any of these destinations and more. 
 
Lancaster is no small potato; the local group of cities comprises nearly half a million people.  Outdoor recreational sports are abundant and soccer for example is extremely popular in the area.  Many employees of this not-for-profit 400+ bed medical center live in Santa Clarita.  Santa Clarita is a premier in the U.S.  Below are only a few of the cities recent accomplishments.
