Essex

Essex is a tiny community in San Bernardino County, California, a remote Route 66 and railroad stop in the eastern Mojave Desert near the Mojave National Preserve, surrounded by open desert and ranch land, where extreme remoteness, extreme heat, and reliable connectivity matter every day. Its business base runs on ranching, small roadside and travel business, trades, land and property, and the few operations serving a remote desert outpost. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms (custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing) for the businesses of the Essex area and San Bernardino County, built to keep working when the network doesn't, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania. Distance is no barrier, and we add on-site time when a project warrants the trip.
