History

The population was 1,014 at the United States Census, 2000 census.

Bunkerville was settled in 1877 by Mormon pioneers from Utah. Bunker, on his own initiative but with permission from Brigham Young, moved his large polygamy family 25 miles southwest to Bunkerville after the settlers in Santa Clara had failed to live the communitarian United Order. The communal experiment ended in 1880. The residents of Bunkerville, so named by Brigham Young, established a new communal effort, sharing the work and the fruits of their work, with all land being held in common. Bunkerville is a census-designated place (CDP) in Clark County, Nevada County, Nevada, United States.
