There are great restaurants here. and, for the most part the people are friendly. (Funny video!) * I had an 2-day express delivery held up indefinitely because the store said my card was issued outside the US. It was issued by a bank in downtown Albuquerque. I told them they had only two choices, ship my order that day or refund my $1200. They had no other option. They shipped it. * Not only calories, but cholesterol also. But I really like the city. It's more laid back and slower paced than other large cities.

Happy anniversary? Hope it worked out!

I was considering moving to Albuquerque so I watched a video tour. If I didn't know any better, it looked like another side of my town, but cleaner. The weather is similar except its 15 degrees colder than where I live. That's perfect because it's hot as hell here, but the winters are the best because it's not that cold. It has almost the same population as my town. My only concern is whether or not there's enough water to live out in the desert just outside of town. All that undeveloped land outside of town is so cheap that it's worth buying and having a well put in if there's enough water to grow food and keep animals.

I'm from a very low-sun area and have a lot of issues with seasonal depression. The cloudiness really really gets to me. I'm thinking about relocating to Albuquerque, but I'm curious about the perspective of people who live there, if so much sunshine ever gets tedious day after day. I've been out to visit and of course I think the area is gorgeous but I'm a bit hesitant because of 'tourist syndrome', that I wouldn't like it as much living there as when I visited. In any case, it looks like a really great market for buying a house.

We're so sorry to hear this, Lester! How long have you been in ABQ?

One of the first things I noticed when we moved here was all the car parts - headlights, fenders, metal - from the accidents at almost every other corner. The first day here we got a flat tire after driving a piece of a crashed car in our lane. The mail service is not like the rest of the US. Living in the Midwest, we would send mail and it would generally arrive at its destination in two or so days. In Albuquerque, when we mail things out, it can take several weeks to arrive in the Midwest. I always mail things from the post office inside (because of so many thefts) but many of my packages never arrive at their destination. I don't mail out gifts anymore from here, but I am wondering if I should use something like Fedex etc. Education is almost a non existent thing in NM and a huge percentage of the population never even finish highschool We have helped many folks read signs at the gas station, grocery store, etc. because they are illiterate. There are nice libraries around but few seem to use them. You will notice children during schooldays with their parents grocery shopping or out and about because parents and kids do not place education as a priority. As a result there are very few real school days in the state. On the plus side, the weather is beautiful here, people are very friendly, folks can golf 365 days a year. Businesses will tell you what you WANT to hear, but then often do not call back or show up as they said they would. It's VERY hard to get anything done for your home in Albuquerque - no lawn maintenance, reliable cleaning services (they tend to disappear) or, in an emergency (which happened to us) our 'regular' plumbers told us they couldn't come for a week. It's a beautiful place but also an EXTREMELY frustrating place if you've previously lived somewhere where folks are well educated and responsible.

Good but you were be grossly underpaid for the region....everywhere else Nurses get paid more...look for either Colorado Springs, El Paso, or Tucson if you want a medium size city that pays better...

Albuquerque is no Denver-, (very , very small by comparison)-which is good and very bad, depends on what you want

Railrunner is a sad joke where all citizens of New Mexico pay for this failure every year...no one takes, goes no where except Santa Fe then there are no connected light rail or options once you get there and service closes up at 9pm...so good luck on restaurants or bar hopping...

You are right, it's a dump

Just search Cops Albuquerque and and watch both videos that come up. That will some up all of Albuquerque. A man wearing lipstick, a wig, toenail polish and wearing a Tarzan suit giving an oddball reason for flagging down police, while two officers pretend they don't see wtf in right in front of their eyes. 🙄

Haha that was our best episode!

If you are a rich person, who can afford to protect and secure of your stuff. If you are rich enough to work when you feel like it, or not alt all; or if you have no stuff at all; then this place is for you. I would not own a car there, unless I had a garage with security system and CCTV. If If visiting as a tourist, I would rent a cheap car, and get the high insurance coverage. I would stay outside the city. High crime means no jobs and or lots of drugs. Altitude, heat, and water shortage are also factors to consider. If you are fair skinned, this place is not for you, as you will have a huge chance of developing skin cancer by 55-60 or something. On the plus side, the scenery is desert beautiful. The sunsets are incredibly gorgeous. The food is great. The vibe is funky and devil may care. If you have a laid back personality that can roll with the punches, and accept the bad with the good;. then this could be your place.

Moving to ABQ? Expect lots of violent crime. Lots of homelessness. Lots of street panhandlers (some violent). Lots of intoxicated drivers. Very poor and dangerous schools (the worst). Very poor healthcare. But the sunsets are beautiful.

Expect crime, ultra liberal policies--if you like that sorta thing--an open border and lost vistas.

You're not wrong!!

There is no industry in New Mexico unless you count city and state government job, and if you aren't Hispanic you won't get, and the Fed jobs are hired from out of state and those people leave after awhile...also remember Netflix and Facebook might not be around in a few years and when and if they open up there they will realize that business is too hard to conduct, but they will have a bunch of empty commercial buildings to use in filming...again these are jobs for Californians not people from New Mexico...

@@AllAboutABQ The pro's would be a small town slow pace with beautiful agricultural scenery with opportunities to homestead yourself and you can make it to the big I in 30 minutes. Also Los Lunas is a growing city and you have conveniences of restaurants, shopping, and work in 10 minutes. The biggest pro is we have plenty of water. Most places you can build a home or set up a mobile home and dig a well and hit water in less then 10 feet! Con's would be small towns aren't for everybody, big yards equal big projects and up keeping. Crime isn't bad here but you can see a slight increase in homeless population due to Albuquerque bussing homeless people down here via the rail runner. Schools are sub par but every public school in New Mexico is horrible.
