Sunfair is a small place in the Mojave Desert in California. It's called an "unincorporated community" because it doesn't have its own local government like a city or town. Instead, it's managed by San Bernardino County.

This community is located about 3.5 miles (5.6 km) northeast of Joshua Tree. A main road, State Route 62, runs just south of Sunfair. Sunfair is also very close to the northern edge of Joshua Tree National Park, a famous desert park.

Kids in Sunfair go to schools run by the Morongo Unified School District. The area also has a hospital called the Hi-Desert Medical Center.
