Campus & Community Information:Campus LocationChina Lake is located approximately 150 miles north of Los Angeles. The Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division China Lake site continues to be the major source of employment for Ridgecrest residents. The City of Ridgecrest, with a population of more than 26,0000 people, is Kern County's third largest city. The City and the Navy are neighbors who benefit from the advantages both bring to the community. Today the spirit-of-the-community extends to residents both on and off the base. The Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University role in the community has evolved since 1994, first as a teaching site of Ft. Irwin; then Edwards AFB, and as of November 1, 2002, becoming the China Lake Campus. We serve the educational needs of the military, civilians and defense contractors employed at China Lake and the surrounding communities.
