The name "Hesperia" means "western land" in Spanish. Because of its relatively high elevation and the unique and moderate weather patterns of the region, Hesperia is part of what is locally called the High Desert, a region that is usually situated between 2,000 feet (and 4,000 feet (1,200 m) above sea level. It is north of the San Gabriel, San Bernardino, and Little San Bernardino Mountains. Hesperia is bordered to the north by the city of Victorville, and to the east by the town of Apple Valley.
Hesperia was a small, slow-growing town until the late 1940s which saw the completion of US Routes 66, 91, and 395. In the late 1960s, Interstate 15 furthered development.
The biggest growth in Hesperia happened in the 1980s. Suburban development transformed a small town of approximately 5,000 people (in 1970) into a population of over 90,000 by the most recent census.

Hesperia has its own manmade lake (Hesperia Lake Park) on the southeastern edge of the town. This lake is where various town activities are held, including the annual Hesperia Day activities. Camping and fishing are permitted here, as well as day camp and various junior sports leagues for sports.
To the east of Hesperia, the Mojave River runs from south to north, mainly underground; it surfaces in Victorville. Although the riverbed is usually dry, it fills up if Hesperia experiences a rare heavy rain.
