The small 'town' there is probably for those who work there and their families,
The 0.4 mile long air strip is labeled R [restricted?] and has an X on the north-east side, and is probably used/designed for emergency transportation, maybe it was once used for crop-dusting a test-farm in that region [like those greenish patches south of it]?

Also, there appears to be civilization about 15 miles down the road, 3 mi. north of the road, with what appears to be two 1-mile air strips [Desert Center Airport]

oh, and 31 miles west is Thermal Airport
20.81 miles SW is Desert Air Sky Ranch
Chiriaco Summit Airport is 5.4 miles west

Eagle Mountain Pump Plant has both an air strip and a school [12 miles east for airstrip, school is 3.3 miles north of that]

That whole region [from your pump station east to Palo Verde is in the Desert Center Unified School District]
