The weather is the best! We enjoy sunshine and blue skies almost every day. Our winters are mild and we get to enjoy all four seasons. The culture is diverse, but warm and friendly. We have experienced several tragedies in our city this year and the community has really pulled together to be supportive to those who are mourning. The food is outstanding. New Mexico green chile is the best in the world and people from all over come to enjoy native New Mexican cuisine. New Mexico has so much natural beauty with endless activities. We are blessed with beautiful mountains. I like the area because of family and friends, hunting, hiking and skiing are all convenient. I wish that the crime rate would decrease and that the employment rate would get better here with new companies and industries. My hope is that the educational system will improve and thus we can attract more businesses. I truly believe that New Mexico is the land of enchantment.
Albuquerque, NM is a town unlike any other in its diversity and dichotomic nature. Depending on how far you are from the gorgeous Sandia Mountains ("sandia" being Spanish for watermelon), your surroundings may range from dusty deserts to pine trees. You will meet all kinds of people, and you could grab lunch with your new friends at a local shop serving traditional New Mexican fare (smothered in green chile, of course), or you could load up on caffeine at an eclectic coffee shop. Join all the marathon bicyclists, run a trail, sleep 'til noon - whatever. In short: take your pick from the array of lifestyles New Mexico can offer you.
Some areas of the city are worse than others in regards to violence. Stabbings and shootings are as common as they would be in a big city. More concerning are the frequency of vehicle thefts and kidnappings. Most concerning are the number of traffic-related deaths - pedestrians beware. Also, there are an alarming number of homeless people in Albuquerque. Most are harmless, so safety is not typically an issue. Police are very visible, but pretty lax toward the general populace. They are more concerned with drugs and violence than traffic. They do seem slow in responding to 911 calls.
