The community is in ZIP code 95221 and area code 209.The town was established in 1852 on Cherokee Creek. Notorious bandit Joaquin Murrieta supposedly spent so much time here that a mountain northwest of the creek was named Joaquin Mountain.

Demerest established a foundry here in 1854, and others soon followed. Most of the stamp mills and a large part of the mining machinery erected in Calaveras and Tuolumne Counties were built at the Altaville Foundry. A brick schoolhouse was built at Altaville in 1858 and the townsite was established in 1873.A post office was established in 1904, closed in 1943, and re-established in 1944.Altaville was also the site of an archaeological hoax, the Calaveras Skull.The town today is registered as California Historical Landmark #288.
