The purpose of Rancho Mirage's Land Use Element is to provide a comprehensive plan of the general allocation and distribution of land uses throughout the city, and it serves as a statement of standards and targets for population density and building intensity. It is described as the broadest of the elements and the basis for coherent land use policy development, identifying areas planned for residential, commercial, and public uses, while the General Plan does not include provisions for industrial uses in Rancho Mirage. The City employs a single-map system of land uses, meaning its General Plan land use designations are the same as its zoning designations, and the density and intensity standards match those in the City's Zoning Ordinance.

Under Policy H 5, Rancho Mirage commits to meeting the state-mandated special shelter needs of large families, female-headed households, single-parent families, workers employed in Rancho Mirage, senior citizens, the disabled, and homeless individuals through the continued efforts of the Housing Authority. The element's evaluation notes the Housing Authority owns and manages 226 affordable rental units, all restricted for seniors ages 55 and older, and that Ordinance No. 1047 (adopted in 2012) requires 1,120 affordable housing units in the Section 19 Specific Plan area. The City also contributes financially to regional organizations that support homeless and disabled individuals, including Angel View, Hidden Harvest, FIND Food Bank, and Martha's Village and Kitchen, and the policy is continued in the 2021-2029 planning period.
