Albuquerque is too big for me. Looking more in the 4 corners area instead.

That's a great question. Do you ever have situations where you've had to help calculate the cost of running utilities to a property?

I have been looking at getting a lot in Placitas. However, the nearest electricity is about 3/4 of a mile away. Do you by chance know approximately what the electric company would charge to run electric that distance?

Moved here 20 years ago from SF Bay Area and no regrets. My money goes twice as far here and I love the desert. Albuquerque is an easy place to live

I was just in ABQ for the Balloon Fiesta-love the city! Can’t wait to visit again. You mention a jazz spot? What’s the name or location?

The water situation is horrible in estancia,the farmers have used almost all the water from the water tables there

Red neck land

I really like it in ABQ, low COL, nice summers, four actual seasons, nice scenery, little traffic, clean air, friendly people, and contrary to popular opinion-I’ve seen very little crime compared to big cities I’ve lived

this is a realtor, so of course hes trying to get you there, but it might be nice and cheaper than some places, but its gone up like everywheree

Affordable living not true I'm paying 1100 for a studio

Ok we are trying to move from Dallas to Rio Rancho. We own an older but still luxurious hi-rise condo in uptown Dallas. For the same price it is looking like we will have to downgrade to a run down “condo” that used to be an apartment in a not so nice part of town.

One of sisters and my niece lives in Albeq nm I have yet too meet them in person instead of Facebook messenger FaceTime I’m in Red Bank South Carolina

love your channel i use to live in rio rancho ❤

I find your videos very helpful and full of pertinent information and personal testimony. I feel better oriented with ABQ after watching your videos.

A good snow storm is like that for me

Can you highlight more small towns or rural areas? Like maybe mountainair, Santa Rosa, Las Vegas, Raton, Cuba as examples

What is the 2 hour away from ABQ look like please

Funny what you think is cold. Today in Wisconsin it was 32 in the morning which was a little chilly. Cold here is -20 to -30 with -40 to -50 windchills in winter good for ice fishing though. We are planning to move to New Mexico in 2025 but not in Albuquerque. Maybe within a hour of Albuquerque. But also looking towards mountainair, four corners, Las Vegas, Cuba.

East mountains sound good. Here in central Wisconsin we average 12 feet of snow in winter with -20 temps with windchills of -40 to -50. Great for ice fishing if your into that.

7:25 is that Cleveland High School? Great video Eli.

I’m typing this after watching the beginning, but I don’t see ABQ having a city hustle and I don’t see RR being less or more busy than ABQ, but maybe I typed this too soon lol

Another great video Eli ,Rio Rancho keeps growing and Northwest Albuquerque the fact that Unser Blvd is the main road to get to and from Rio Rancho is time saved in driving, thanks again for this video.👍👍

Traditional New Mexico food is so much better than Tex Mex.

I live in Ventana and the HOA isn’t bad, just keep your yard relatively clean and don’t leave trash cans out and you should be fine. It’s very quiet aside from the racers on the weekends

What’s considered the Southwest heights?

I moved here for the nice summer weather, but I get the small town feel. I’m from SoCal and moved here from PHX. Everyone is much friendlier than I’m accustomed to. The only gripe I have which I guess is a pro and a con is there’s zero sense of urgency, especially when driving. I miss a lot of lights cuz of that lol

You have a great presentation of the city & have an intimate knowledge of the areas but unfortunately Albuquerque is not a great city to live in due to crime. I mean there are only 18 cities WORLDWIDE you'd be less safe in over Albuquerque. Copied & pasted from Google Where does Albuquerque rank in crime? Albuquerque ranked 19th most dangerous city in the world. Worse than Mexico City, Sao Paulo Brazil, Bogota Colombia, Oakland, Atlanta, Philadelphia or Chicago.Jul 17, 2024 The city's violent crime rate is notably higher than the U.S. average, with 13.88 incidents per 1,000 residents compared to the national rate of 7.8 per 1,000. Property crime in Albuquerque also exceeds national levels. This includes offenses such as burglary, larceny-theft, and motor vehicle theft.Aug 20, 2024

Rio Rancho & East Mountain areas are nice places.

I moved here to retire due to lower cost of living with no need to go outdoors. Diversity creates problems, let NM remain like what it is, it is enough.

I like the NW by the Petroglyphs and also the area around Constitution and Eubank. My godparents lived there for 50 years+. Rest in peace!

Burque bitches 🎉

As long as you don’t have -20 to -50 degree weather in winter along with average snowfall of 24 plus inches of snow. Also having less humid days in summer is also a plus. My asthma is affected more from humidity and extreme cold than much else. Our elevation here in Wisconsin is 1,001 ft. Granted not as high there but shouldn’t be to bad.

Albuquerque is just a boring city Albuquerque is all around if you think rio rancho is not Albuquerque your wrong cause it is it only takes 15 mins to get there this city is hell aw small real small its real boring here nothing really to do nice

I'm moving there, it's beautiful. ❤ Txs for tip on allergy OTC ❤

Looking at moving to New Mexico from central Wisconsin. Not really interested though in Albuquerque area though. We are looking for 100 plus acres.

No way in hell would I buy a house in ABQ!!!!😂😂😂

Careful...we don't want too many ppl in NM

Where is an affordable, safe place for seniors to live?

So are Californians

I honestly can’t afford to move any place else

ok thx. abq rated a 2 months ago the best pace to live for allergies. it says high desert the best. i plane on moving there when i can. im in rapid city sd now.

Great job representing our state.✊🏽🤜🏽🤛🏽

Love our volcanos west of alb

There are definitely tunnels running under downtown from El Rey Theater to Sunshine Theater! I used to work at the El Rey and the Golden West Saloon before it burned down. I didn't know they opened up the lower level as a speakeasy! Cool!

We were wanting to get out of PHX cuz of the weather , but wanted to stay in the southwest and didn’t care for Tucson. We came out to ABQ/RR to visit and it was perfect and we stayed. It’s a much lower a COL than PHX and summers are really nice. The winter was a little different than I’m used to, but is kind of fun after never having a winter before. It also feels like a small town after living in PHX and being from SoCal which is nice, everyone is so friendly here.

if allergies are that bad there i cant move there. its crazy some article said abq was the second best us city to live with allergies within the last 2 months.

I need help on getting a place brother..

For me the answer is no 👎🏼

You forgot to mention our fight scene..Johnny tapia Danny Romero Holly holms John bones Jones Julio Cesar Chavez

Left ABQ, lived by unm for a decade, live in Rio Rancho now for the last 8 years, best thing ever. No more crime, no more bodies dumped in the alley, no more junkies.
