Review of Rio Rancho, New Mexico


Love it
Star Rating - 1/22/2020
Affordable housing, low crime (compared to Albuquerque), awesome weather with all 4 seasons, beautiful environment and some pretty awesome people. I love Rio Rancho, growing up in Albuquerque I always just thought of Rio as a boring little bedroom community but it’s honestly the place to be. It’s growing a lot, so there’s lot of new houses being put up, streets being widened, businesses and offices being built, etc. Lots of work here, blue collar or white collar.
The weather is pretty awesome, the summers are kinda hot but no where as bad as Vegas or Phoenix and it’s not humid like Texas or anywhere else out east. The fall is beautiful, winter is short and not too bad, spring is beautiful.
The people are honestly pretty great too, it’s a very politically diverse city; meaning that there’s lots of republicans, democrats and everything in between or outside. No matter what you believe, you’ll fit right in. If you’re thinking of moving to NM, I’d recommend Rio Rancho for sure. You’ll be in a safe area, large houses, nice weather, close proximity to the mountains, river, city, etc. If you’re coming from California, I’d totally recommend coming here instead of Texas or Arizona, please. Leave them alone
