While being a safe environment, there are many things that make up Los Alamos. Such as, all the different events that happen throughout the year. During the summer there is the Gordon concerts, craft fair, science festival, farmers market, etc. During the winter there is meeting santa, ice skating, skiing, etc. Many companies help put on different events so there is always something to do. With all the different activities, it is very safe. There is very little criminal action. The schools have a wide variety of programs and there are many amazing teachers. Though Los Alamos is great, its not perfect. Many students have experienced a depression/anxiety because of the high expectations. Like every school, there are amazing teachers and "not the best" teachers. All the classes are reasonable, but it is the "not the best" teachers that make the classes tough. Overall, it is an amazing town that is safe and is keeps you on your toes.
Small, rich white town. The schools are great and it is very safe but the jobs are centered around the national labs, houses are expensive and limited and it is very white. It has gotten better but tnds to close early on weeknights.
Los alamos is a great town! Very safe and lots of friendly people. The only thing I would change is have more restaurants in the town.
